Is Muskoka a Good Place For Consumptives ? Toronto, June 6.--~(To the Editor): Many times | have been asked, and received written enquiries, as prob: ably other physicians shave, in res pect to Muskoka as a place of resi dence for consumptives, Having stud- ied the meteorological conditions, rainfall, etc. and the elevation, from railroad grades, of many localities in Ontario, aod being convinced that it is not a good place for such patients, I feel now constrained, on their he hall, to. give publicity to, and reas ons for, my convietion. While Muskoka is doubtless a most desirable locality, especially in June, July and August, for over-worked, worn out neurotics, etc., for whom a moist atmosphere is usually benefici- al, 1 believe it to be very mmsuitable for tuberculous patients. It is too near the great lakes, and is not much elevated, and hence the atmosphere is too moist for them, even in summer, A patient now in Toronto, under treatment, spent much of last sum- mer at Huntsville, one of the higher and drier parts of the district, with no special benefit. She remarked that mists were frequent, almost constant, indeed, morning and evening~An old practitioner tells me that when there he can always wring water from his shirt in the morning after it has hung in his room all night. And what are the final practical re- sults ? Many could, alas! be named who, in the earliest stage of the dis: ease, went from this city, and after a residence there of from one to wo years, came back home and died. On the other hand, who with well defin- ed, pronounced pulmonary tuberculo- sis has resided long there and recov: el? In a favorable locality, such patients should nearly all recover. In some places in Burope to which con: samptives go, in all stages of the di- Sease, over ¢ , is on the Ga- tinea mosatains, north of Ottawa.

The first round has been fought in the legal battle by which the conserv- atives hopetl to overturn the Ross government. There were several con- stituencies in which the majority was small, and the opposition reasoned that these offered opportunities for electoral surprises. The argument ran thus: The re turning officers in the elections were liberals; there were rejected ballots ; the marks indicated doubt as to the mind of the electors the government must get the benefit of the doubt. "Faninent jurists," according to the World, had had the nature of these rejections under discussion, and they had decided that a recount would lead to weveral charges and to the certain revecsal of some results. Lennox was so sure for the conser vatives that they had no hesitation whatever in claiming it. It had only two to come and go upon, and these two disappeared in the recount. The tie had to be settled by the return ing officer, and he made very short work of it. Of course he will be con- sidered a very bad man by the tories, but he has acted as they, would have acted under similar circumstances. The first knock-out is a serious one for the opposition. With it fades away some of the dreams in which they have imduiged. As Lennox nas gone so other of the constituencies will go, and the second condition of the Whiiney party will be worse than its first. CROWDED INTO IDLENESS. The position of the clergy composing the Toronto Methodist conference, in the Dr. Hunter case, passes compre hension. The doctor has been living in retirement for two or thiee years His health was not good, and he had to be superannuated. He desired to locate in Toronto, and no one could see any objection, though it is said he was transferred from the Montreal conference to the Toronto with the distinet 'understanding that he was not out of the ministry, permanently. One may ask, what difference could that make ? Every conference has its quota of choice positions for which the elderly men are eligible. When transfers are made it is desired that they involve a fair exchange, and that the interests of the conferences be not affected. Dr. Hunter has been a noted ligure in the church. He bas occupied some of its best charges. He went to Toronto conference without any ex: change, and he would become; there fore, in a certain, narrow sense, a burden to it if restored to the active ministry. And yet why should he re main in retirement if his health has been improved, if he be able and will ing to resume the work of a pastor? The Berkeley street church, in To- ronto, gave him an invitation, which he was inclining to accept. The con- ference intervened, however, and by a pretty strong vote refused him his desire. The proceeding seems to be arbit- rafy, and it does a veteran of the church a great wrong. It does more it betrays a selfish and jealous spirit. it suggests that preachers are as sen: sitive as people generally on the sal ary question. Dr. Hunter's experience stands out, too, in bold contrast with the ideal which he pictured in a sermon to an ordination class in 'this ity some years ago. Jt may have an effect not looked for, namely; to de preciate the superannuation scheme of the church and make it suffer loss, REWARD AND DISTINCTION.

A NEED OF LESSONS, The American legislators are be coming desperate in thir treatment of the Filipinos. These people are simply unsusceptible to any of the plans that } featad and charlatan been suggested for their con quest. They will not be tamed subdued. The disturbance of the islands is as have nor great to-day as at the outset of the | American invasion. They may be held more in check, under military nile, but they are not reconciled and not contented. Yet the United States senate has undertaken to pass a measure which presumes to establish a government, that is bereft of independence or local control and afford a citizenship which the Filipinos may not accept. Accord- ing to a Buffalo paper this measure practically gives no rights whatever, and only in the most ambiguous way promises a shadow seli-govern- ment. Even that shadow is "'reserv- ed until entire peace shall prevail in overy part of the archipelago," a con- dition which, in the opinion of contemporary, "is not likely to pre vail for many years." In fact the bill provides all sorts of concessions favour of American exploitation and capital, and nothing whatever for the owners of the soil, the Filipinos, .and that in spite of General McArthur's warning that "the attempted exploita- of our in tion of the provinces by the Americans would lead to the most deplorable and mournful results." How different the treatment of the Boers by the British! They given their freedom, the benefit of seli- government are as fast as they qualify for it, the soil they want, the money to equip 'the farms, the food and rain- ment, the shelter and protection, which they want meantime. Evidently the Americans are not up-to-date in the colonizing business, and they cannot do better, those wise men who consti- tute the United States senate, than take lessons from old England, the mother of nations. A POLITICAL CHARLATAN. The Winnipeg Free Press deals with one remarkable aspect of the late political campaign. The Ross govern ment had reason to expect the iavour- able consideration of the people in New Untario. Its policy of assistance and development had been of a prac tical and progressive character. Yet in three of the constituencies the libe- ral candidates were defeated. How was this result brought about ? Chief ly by an audacious proposition, in volving wholesale bribery. 'Ihe Free I'ress contihues : "The conservative candidate in Sault Ste. Marie was Mr. Miscamp bell, who has long represented a Sim coe constituency in the legislature and would be certain to be a member of ue conservauve goverment should one be formed in Untario. Mr. Whit ney and Mr. Mibcampbell journeyed through these districts and in their addresses commiserated with the set tlrs on the hardships inseparable irom settlement in a - new country which, however, they were careiul to charge up to che liberal government. Ihev anuounced that it was their po- licy, if returned to power, to permit the settler to own the pine on his farm.

Only by compensating them could the set- tlers be permitted to make use of the pine. In districts where the pine has not yet been sold by the government, to change the law that the free grant or the sal of public lands for cultiva- tion carries no right to the gtanding pine, which has been the rule since the carhiest times, would be to deprive the province of Ws chief source of re venues, and to convert the whole busi- ness of colonization in New Untario into a gambling transaction.

It is now three years since the crime took place. It is nearly three years since the first trial occurred at a cost of half a million dollars. This new trial will consume at least $100,000, and the case may go on as long as there is money to spemsl on it. Deafness And Dry Catarrh of the Ear. Those who suffer irom defective hear ing, caused by dry catarrh of the middle ear, will find much emcourage ment in the fags that the editor of the "Journal for the Deal" takes a more hopeful view of this disease than aur ists in general, who up to the present time have insisted that a very unfav orable opinion must be given as to restoration of hearing. This encour agement is derived from the remark able results reported in a great num ber of cases treated by the Drouet me thod. In fact, so great has been the success of this treatment in all forms of deafness and car diseases that the editor of the Journal for the Deaf is now issuing regularly a supplement containing complete details of from twenty-five to thirty cases cured each month by the Drouet institute. In the April supplement will be noted partic ularly the case of the Rev. J. G., who suffered from deafness caused by dry catarrh. In fact the defective hearing was of so serious a character that a doctor had pronounced it incurable. The cure efiectél by the Drouet treat ment was reported Décember 17th, and again confirmed pearly three months ter. had no further return of the trouble, and look upon mysell as cured. --Yours faithfully --J.G.
