I Y THE GOVERNMENT AND RAILWAYS.
I
l
We called attention some time ago
l to the important new departure made
by the Laurier Government in regard
_ to the railway subsidies voted this
year.It is now for the first time stipu-
lated that railways hereafter receiv-
ing Government money shall render
, service to the Government when re-
quired to the value of three per cent
per annu-si of the subsidies they
receive. These services may be called
for in transporting mails, or troops or
in the carriage of supplies or in other
ways.
_ But before this general rule was
_laid_down the Government had made
a departure by which expenditure of
Government money in railway building
should return something more than
_ the usual indirect benefit to the
'people.This was done when the con-
tract was given to the Canadian
Paciic for the construction of the
Crows’ Nest Pass Railway. Tue agree-
ment contained a stipulation for a
P. S.-Discount choo Q reduction of rates by the C. P. R. in
teachers and scholars. 3 Ithe carriage of grain, Hour. &c on its
.ululuhuluhr main liue and branches.
= This reduction in freight rates _on
lst of September instant. Heiieafter
_ _' _ all grains will be carried .dastward

is estimated thatJ40,000,000 bushels

‘ The advantage to western farmers in
‘ these reduced rates on inward freights
will probably not make so great a
total as on the bulkier products
going outwards, but will run up into
hundreds of thousands.
Probably a million or thereabouts
in all will be saved to the peop‘e of
I the great West in the matter of
,freight rates within a year to come as
the result of the bargain referred to.
Rates had been unduly high and had
no doubt hindered the open-
ing up and growth of i the
country, which will now receive
a new impetus. In this way a great
,indirect advantage must follow with
the direct saving of money by the
reduced rates.

There are now bicycle trusts in
both the United States and Canada,
the one capitalized at $40,000,000 and
the other at $4,000,000. What the
effect of these combinations will be
upon prices remains ro be seen. The
Chicago Tribune points out that with-
in a few years of free competition the
price of the best wheels has been
brought down from $150 to $40. The
trusts are capitalised at twice the cost
of the plants they control. To pay
dividends they must increase their
profits, which means increased prices,
and of necessity a decreased demaed.
' For some time past there has been
a growing impression that a general
election for the Dominion may be
held before the next session of Par-
liament and possibly before the new
ear be ins A Quebec des atch to the
authority of “a ministerial meniber 'of
its own reasons for nerplacing much
reliance on tliwdenial. Pri bably the
Cabinet has' not definitely decided up-
on holding an election in the near
the C. P. R. went into efect on thsflfuturei and may 'mt 8° decide for
some time to come. And no member
of the Commons outside of the
Cabinet can speak with any authority
on the question.
Sir Thomas Lipton was asked the
other day if he had much money
staked on the coming ' international
yacht race. His answer was ‘°I have
uevee wagered in my life.” This would
be a better world if all lovers of sport
could say the same. Sir Thomas is in
,the race for the sport there is in it.He
admits that the Shamrock and the
preparations in the race have cost him
tens of thousands of pounds--.£80.000
as others say-and adds, “I will
can, but the good wishes of the
Americans are dearer to me than any
cup in existence.” In the course of the
inierview Sir Thomas was told that
tho betting now stands 100 to 75 in
favor ofthe Columbia. I
The Sultan of Turkey some time
ago set up a claim to central Africa,
and dled a protest against the occu-
pation of the country between Fas-
hoda and Lake Tchad, by Great
Britain. ' In taking this action he i=
probably prompted from- St. Peters-
burg, or Paris, or both. The ground
of the claim is that centuries ago the
Sultans of Constantinople had some
sort of control over these regions. but
it was long since utterrly lost. The
Sulran has no love for England. He
has the nominal sovereignty of Egypt
still, though the British are in occu-
pation there. No doubt they are very
unwelcome guests-about as unwel-
come in fact as would be a French or
German occupation of the Transvaal,
where some remains of British suzer-
ainty are yet claimed ‘
