(Ottawa Journal) If the Y.M.C.A. has not found it possible to charge lower prices for things it sells to the soldiers on the batt-lcvfield and to give away without clmrge more hot drinks and other comforts, is it going to do any good to undermine the Y.1\I.C.A. in the mind of the public upon whom it is dependent for the funds necessary before it can give miytliing away to the soldiers? Federal Home Rule (Toronto Star) Instead of Home Rule for Ireland `only, Lord Brassey would have a. federal system for the United King- dom, with, it is to be supposed, Pro- vincial Go\'ern1x1ents for England, I for Ireland for Scotland, and pos- sibly Eor \Va1es. He would make Ire- land, not :1 Dominion like Canndzi, but a. Province like Quebec or On- tario. Here he strikes at the root of the disagreement between various advocates of Home Rule. An Awful Thought Mr. Fred Brock will enter into the wood game in Collingwood in the fall. To do this he has purchased the McA1lister property at the in-' terscction of the Second Line and the lake shore road. This consists of `about one hundred and eig'ht_\'-five ` .acres, extending from the lake shore on the north to the sideroad on the south and from the Second Line west the depth of the concession. The local colony of Jews in Mid- land have made a raid upon the town says The Argus, during the pastfew ilays in purchasing property and have secured well selected and valuable homesteads in different parts of the town. There has been a considerable ` `influx of these people into town dur- ing recent years and a number of them have establislied themselves in different lines of business. While using a meat slasher in her father s butcher Shop, Miss Nellie Allison, of Beeton, struck her hand, severing the second finger of her left hand at the first joint. The post-office at Randolph Town- ship of Tiny, has been closed. `No farmer in the neig'11bourhood would be bohered with the position of `post-master for the paltry salary at- ltached to the office. Among` the new a1'riva.1s to Work in the Shipyard at Midland is a_ party of Frenchmen composed of a I father and two sons. All were able - and willing to remain at the front` I so far as fghting was concerned, but all had been wounded and could not march, and were consequently dis- dharged. For the excellent and coilrageo-is spirit displayed by the boys of the district and the boys who are work- ing on farms, the Canada Food Board is holding a special meeting` next Saturday at Bradford, to honor the boys who have taken up the ar- duous tasks of farm Work.

Disloyal Nationalists (New York Tribune) The English Government cannot do anything with Ireland without figliting the Ulster Unionists, who want conscription, don t want home rule and would as lief fight for one as against the other, or the Nationa- lists, who are three-quarters of the Irish population, and woutd sooner die for home rule than be consc1`ipv`.- ed. It is easy to say that th:et.- quarters of the Irish ouglit to prevail But it is easier still for the Ulster Unionists to say that if three-quab ers of Ireland may threaten to secede from Great Britain, so may Ulster, which is one-quarter of Ire- land, threaten to secede from Ire- land.
