The railway statidtics, which have just been published by the United States Interstate Commission, tells their own story. Train accidents are not detailed, but there is manifestly something amiss, many things at [favit, when the casualties during the your so far number 20.650, and in | connection with them 766 persons have been killed and 19,884 injured. Collisions qecur through carelessness lor neglect. For instance the other "day an inbound passenger train left 'the track at s nearby station, and the wreek of the tedin. was complete, though only one person, strange. to say, was hurt. The tower man--that (18 the man who regulates the switches * --disappeared after the smash-up, and 4 there was only ope conclusion. He bad failed in his duty, One enn imaging the confusion of orders or ideas which must have pre vailed on the American roads when during the year ending with June 0th, 1910, there were 5,861 collis ions, causing the death of 433 per sons, and the injury of 7,765. The derailments were very numer ous, 5,018 in number, resulting in the killing of 840 persons and the in jury of 4,814. The people must tra vel fast. They want to goon a "Ayer" if 'it be available, and fast running, to be safe, means that all the appliances are first-class, that the track is the very best, and that th train service is ns perfect as it can be made, Over in England an accident or a fatality is of rare occurrence. The trains make good time, as good time as in the Uhited States, but the pre esutions against accident omit no- thing that can suggest itself to th mind of man. At long intervals ¢ mithap does take place, but if hy man ingennity can prevent it there will not be a repetition of the ex: perience under similar circumstances, FINANCIALLY RUNNING BEHIND, When the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill was passed by the American congress three years ago one desired effect wax accomplished. More revenue was se cured, and more was desired. The promise of the president--a promise he was mokt anxious to fulfil-was vhat the tariff would be reduced, hut Lhe re- vision was generally upward, and it added enormously to the national re coipts. : The United States has liad a great public works on hand, however, in the Panama Canal snd already so far this year the deficit is $21,000,000. The espenditure of over flty millions a eg a viey month cannot be avoided.

A change in the ® government may mean a change in gO the fiscal policy of the country, and of a change there is just now a very great probability. -------------- RACIAL WAR IN VIEW, The rumour proceeds from Ottawa that a vew party is being formed in ihe 'sommons, . one representing Protestants of Canada, aid that th 0 posed. upon. They ure to be excused in some degree, but there is uo justifi- cation for of palliation of the sets of those who have been campaigning in Quebec with the nationglists. Men like Monk and Boarapss, amd Lavergne and Blondin, are phponsible 10 the people for their deceptions, for making " electors believe that Britain has any designs upon them or their sons. It was "a dastardly campaign which they conducted, and they will live to' repent of it in sackeloth and ashes, The day may not come when Protes- tants and Catholics will be lined up against each other--that would be & lamentable spectacle, and the reverse of 'what the premier of the dominion has used his good offices to prevent but the day will come when, if the French of Quebee must have if, they will be against the rest of the domin- ion, for this is an English country, and Fnglish sentiment and English loyalty will not be ¢ontemned by the minority, however aggressive it may be. EDITORIAL NOTES. The order of 'it may be uncertain, but it is clear that the bi-linguly schools must. go. 5 The strike of Windsor pupils: against the proposal that they shall be tanght by one not of their own faith is an avidence of the times. The people are deciding on religious lines, and it is a very ;uncomisrtable thought. Burning the morigage! The Queen Street Methodist: church people must be in luck, and they are to be con: gratulated. But, what are they going to do now? The average cong ega- tion suffers without an incentive of some kind. v Sir George Ross appears to reflect current opinion cn the reciprocity question. The people do any mission which grows out of the sire for annexation. H. 8. Whitney and the North Ameri can need pot worry about Canada. It is not seeking commercial union with the United States, and will not even blink at the idea of political union. The plan of driving Canada into a treaty of 1854 was a pronounced fail- ure. The English conservatives in' Drum- mond and Arthabaska voted for the nationalist candidate. Anything to beat Laurier. The British flag may be insulted, 'and holes may be, metaphori- eally shot in it, and these party vot- ers can remain passive and contented. Their loyalty under the circumstances is seriously open to question. Mr. Tait is being sorrowfully bidden adieu in Australia, having resigned the railway commissionership. His re tirement was criticised so that he was glad to facilitate his departure. He made the government system pay, which was the first consideration, but he could not please some people. The Apgel Ga: briel could not do that. The anti-British campaign which was conducted in Drummond and Arthg baska will not end there. The feeling engendered by the irrational conduet of political fanaties will develop diffi culties of a more or less serious na- ture until there is a violent clash all along the line between French and English, and it is not difficult to im agine what the result will be. Ths other day a liberal Jew an- nounced that he had changed his poli- tics because his party did not exalt any of his rice. Now a host of He brews leavk a tory meeting because they have been shamefully trpated in the matter of offices. The idea that each partichlar race must be recog nized in the governments of our sity and country is becoming an acute one. The Bishop's Good Job.

His worship wanted to see how A locomo- ttive was run, and so he climbed into the dinky little machine that draws ithe cars to and from the Thousand Island dunetion, and rode into Gananoque with the engineer. The Lampman is of the opinion that if Coteilman "Christy" Geabam goes up against Daniel in a contest for the mayor's. chair, it will be Daniel all the way. » * % The Lampman remarked on the fact that in the penitentiary here there is a Jew imprisoned for smuggling, or for doiog on a Intge seale what good, (pious people. ave doing all the time, and think it po sin. He recalls hear ing 'a clergymen say that he thought it no harm to get the bettéf of the customs suthorities, and that he had on more than one oceagion "neglect: ed" to report dutiable goods. He also recalls that some time ago a well known cherchman of this town was held up hete by a vustonis officer for trying to sneak in an dee credm freezer, on which he did not want to pay duty.

A general election in England held in now or prior to the ecoromwation June next would leave the parties in pretty muoh the same relative posi tion. Bye-election conditions usually assist the opposition and in the late contests strenuous efforts were made by the tariff reformers to impress the electors with the need of a change in the fiscal system, but without marked results. The industrial situation in Britain is exceptionally good, snd the consequent. absence of personal discontent rather discounts argu- ments of considerable appeal when times are bad and unemployment com- mon. Fortune meantime is 'on the side of the government, and unless the un- expected happens it appears likely to remain in power during the notable imnerial events that will distinguish 1911, unless the house of lords again compels un appeal tos the country over the current year's budget.
