While it from the people at times fundamental it well to seek a mandate it is not a of government in either Britain or Canada that dissolutions of parliament should attend every im- partant. development of public policy. The government of the day is compos- "led of men who are the trustees of the people and who are expected to act at all times as they believe the people would have them do. It is theirs to study the public interests and pursue ®! the course which prudenco and discre- tion dictates. It is little over a year since there was a general election, and it talk about another is absurd to election now. PEOPLE ARE FORGETFUL. The movement for the coaseryation of the natural resources, inaugurated President Roosevelt, is producing The aim is to take control, by results. in the name of the people, of all the water falls and fuel fields that are not already held by monopoksts. It may be that the National Conserva- tion assoc.ation may fail in some of the they its schemes, or that congress or government may fail to act as ought to do. Dr. Charles W, Eliot, late of vard Har- college, mow of the Conserva- ' [tion association, has pointed out that the federal law is quite inadequate {for the protection of the public inter- 'ests. It permits of the entries for !small privileges," but does not follow them up and see that these individual not the implements i through "which capitalists and design- : their pur- couple of i . {claiments dre ing persons accomplish poses, The lessons of a years ago should 'never be forgotten; at least they should not be forgotten by the' present generation. The sumers of soal found themselves help- con: less in 'the face of a famine they could not end. The qiiarrel between the and the nanérs brought which had not been eoal harons about a crisis paralleled. When the labour difficulty was most acute tle president of the United States intervened. and the dip- lomsdey which he and others dis played saved the day. The people were then with the 'contention that the na- tional government should own and control the mines and give a 'guar- antee that never again would the people's comfort, if not life itself be placed in jeopardy. Dr. Eliot, however, calls attention to the fact that the nationalization of the pub- lic utilities has not been advanced. In the Alaskan coal fields, fifteen billion tons of coal have been found, and they are subject to the Nine hundred cleimants have lodged their applications for property rights, and some of them suggest the rankest frauds. The record has been withdrawn--that is, the registration of claims and the legality of the whole proceeding has been questioned--but that will not 'protect the public in- terests. There must be legislation and the trusts have their own methods of influencing or defeating it. "The situation with respect to wa- ter power developments," adds Dr. Eliot, both in the public domain and in navigable streams, is substantially similar to that with respect to coal. The water powers cannot be effectually developed in the public interests un- der the existing law. How backward or indifferent the federal government is in regard to the public interests, and because of this the capitalists are busy and to some purpose. impressed EDITORIAL NOTES.

Gananoque, Nov. 12.--Harqld Wil liams, the fifteen-year-old lad charged with breaking into James Shaw's resi- dence; just north of the corporation limite, a stealing $25.35, on Tues day af nm, was arraigned before Police Magistrate Carroll yesterday. The magistrate sentenced the prisoner to two years in Mimico Industrial school. George Kelsey, charged with being under the influence of liquor while on the "Indian list,' was fined five dol lars and costs. According to his story the liquor was got for him by an out of-town person, residing near Secley's Bay, and who had no knowledge of Kelsey being on the "Indian list." The Gananoque Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock Association, at its session, on Wednesday evening, had single combed brown Leghorns on exhibition, and Robert Coffey, of Kingston, pres- ent by request to judge the birds and lace the ribbons, awarded thom thus : ockerel, first and second, Charles Shook, Willetsholme, Pullet, first, R.

The annual session of the Gananoque branch of the Canadian Bible Society was held in the lecture room of Grace church, last evening. D. McElroy, travelling secretary, gave an address. Michael O'Connor, Charles street, has been confined to hig home for several days, seriously ill. Capt. D. J.

Speak thieves were found to have been on board the crait and carried off one of the signal lamps, An interesting case came up in "he division court proceedings at Delta, on Wednesday, when W. W. Stafford, of Gananoque, brought action against John Chapman, Sweet's Corners, for the balance of the price of a mare sold to defendant, September 10th last. De- fendant claimed the animal was not as recommended, being baulky, aaviug weak front feet, ,and being a kicker. Plaintiff claimed he sold the animal in good faith and had given no guar- antee. The judge held that there had been neither warranty nor fraud on plaintifi's part, to whom he gave judg- ment for $100 apd costs. E. 0. Welter, tax collector, reports that to date $29,000 has been collect- ed, leaving a balance of $6,000 wncol- lected, to which the five per cent. ad- dition will be added. The recent unverified rumors concern- ing the change of ownership of the T.I'RR., which have been current here during the past week, are, it is now claimed, not without foundation, as the deal has been closed whereby the local line will at an early date be tak. en over by the C.N.R. Such a proceed ing would be of great advantage to Gananoque, as the new owners would extend the line northward, connecting Front and Rear of the riding, and bringing a vast amount of business this way.

Really, it may be said, Canada's relations with Great Britain alone serve io give her choice in the matter. She. may, if. she ploases, continue under the old order, counting in tho unlikely event of war, on Great Britain's navy doing all that is neocssary to defend her coasts, and her sea mores, which sea com- merce will be, of course, as much Great Britain's ps Canada's, just as she once on Great Br tain's army doing most that was reguired to protect her land border, and even to preserve domestic peace. Many, aml probably most, who will think over the matter will be inclined to reject such case and, to say that a colonfal status As not a reason for de- clining a national duty. It is only as' a duty. that the assumption of naval obligations may be justified, and as outlining the way in which a duty may be discharged, the propositions of tho government should be received and cousiderad by parliament andthe people, * the purpose being to devise the most reasonable, officctive and available way of doing that which is expected of the country.
