The depart- ment buildings at Ottawa are c` gested with civiljservants and .t are increasing rapidly. Wehaxe six- teen cabinet ministers. for 7,000,000 people, while the United `States with '8o,oo0,000 requires but `one half that number. That all these ministers are not needed isclearly shown by the fact that for weeks at _a` time tl__1e; country gets along with only one or two of them at Ottawa.` And it is fair to surmise that at -least_ two more ministers will be created soon. The Minister of -Mines is now the Minister of Inland Revenue. It will not be long before there is'one man for each portfolio. ' Neither is it to be doubted that we shall. soon have a Minister of External Affairs. It must be borne in mind, moreover. that every time anew minister is created "he calls into being a number of oicials such as deputy ministers, secretary of the department, secre- tary to the minister, etc.` ,'M3ore money is frittered away on unneces- sary offices. and junkets than the people generally are awaregof. K There is much `dissatisfaction over theiway in which the money voted for militia is diverted to ornamental purposes and {taken from -the boys throughout `the country who.are wil- ling to go into camp and drill'.and' who are the real militia. flBrigadier generals are becoming snumcr ms as cabinet ministers w staffs and brass buttons galore. `But all this is at the expense of the men in the ranks; e'S_ev eral regiments E Eastern- Ontario refused to go into camo this year on account of the n.iggard- ly way in which they were treated by the department. a ' " a A - ._.v ..v`.--. --..-v-gvu \- -Parliament votes $7,000,060. for militia-, but the bulk of itiis wasted upon a standing army :with- more ocers thgni men, and the true mili- tia ar_e bemg starvedout.

V To express the opinion of an old and well-known dealerregarding the trade at the City Cattle Market this morning, business was exceptional- ly good a-nd prices strong, in consid- eration of the large quantit of in- ferior stock that wasoere . The run amounted to 68 -cars, including 1,100` cattle, 860 sheep and lambs, 300 hogs, and 201 calves, and the en- tire lot was sold o` before noon. A great many grass cattle, mainly cows, were received, and continued to be sold at low prices. The better class of butchers and exporters, how- ever, were possibly bought at higher was not diicult to pick the choice material- As, for instance, the high- est priced transaction on the market to-day was the purchase by Mr. Geo. 'Rowntree of 3 loads of select export gures,'because'of their scarcity., It| cattle at $6.55 per cwt.
