The Hamilton Herald finds that aotwithstanding the lower tani 1 the United States living is not cheap} The charge of the Argentine b 'men is probably true. It is tha 'the meat packers, for obvious rea #0ns, are operating against the im- porters through the railway compan- "ies. These companies have business alliances with the packers, and the Argentine agents have, because of lack of accommodation, complained to the Interstate Commission and should be given some redress. Living is not cheaper because the trusts are trying to control the meat market at home and sbroad. It remains to be seen how far these rich momopolists can regulate the meat supply of the world, Like the New Haven Rail- way company, which wasted $85,000, 000 in the ysin attempt to manipu- late the transportation facilities of New England, the American packets may outreach themselves and land in difficulty in the end.

The Peterboro i, M is a genuinely independent conservative paper. It has reached the point of being candid in its criticism of the party leaders, and of standing courageously by what it says. It objects to the retention of Dr. Reaume in the cabinet. He was "rejected in a constituency of bis own jormation and hy the party eaucus; "he split his party by forcing himself into the fight; he is largely responsible for the monumental folly of a lieuten- . ant-governor's residence " which only a very rich man can _eupy; he was selected in the first place ; . because oi his ability to juggle with . the French vote, and the Ontario gov ernment, has now no use for it; and She is not even entitled to a senator C#hip. ALL this the Review says with- out any mincing of matters. More over, it is not in favour of the dicta- tion to the Ontario government of Hon. Frank Uochrane, or any other man. It is opposed to all interlock- ing methods "'because the principles of congervatism make such methods un- necessary, and because they are not in the best interests of the people of On- tario and the dominion." And to our local contemporary, who undertook to chide the Review, it remarks : "Our Ningston friend may stand pat in the matter, (of praising and lauding and magnifying Hon, Frank Cochrane), but iF M of THE CANTEEN SCANDAL. $ Linon company was involved British. canteen scandal, snd a OC: in the re 1 | nRented it in Toronto, i which revealed the fact that his wealth was the result of political in- trigues of an infamous kind.

London, July 30.--The necessit for more serious co-operation be tween Britian and the overseas do minions for the development of empire, with some sort of supervi ion with regard to emigration, was urged by Donald MacMaster in the debate on a colonial vote in the com mons. The member for Chertsey alo pointed out the need for improved means of communication with the dominions and a better news' ¥e: vice. »The latter suggestion was develop- ed by Mr. Alden, member for Totteu- ham, who thought the colonial off ce might do worse than institute a service of cablegrams to the domin- ions, giving the important news from Great Britain.
