The Robb btidget, broughtdow; in the House at Ottawa last Thursday, fully lived up to ad- vance notices. Rightly or wrongly, the Robb` principle of getting bigger revenue on a lower tariff because of bigger business has been strict- ly adhered to. That principle would seem to have_already justified itself in the `prosperity which Canada -is now enjoying. Increased im- ports and exports, also `increased production in the factories of the country, as shown b . of- ficial statistics just issued are concrete-evi ence that Hon. James Robb has been and is still on the right track. The fact stands out that Cana- dians, irrespective `of political-affiliations , or whatever they may think of the government and its leader, have the utmost respect for and confidence in the Minister of Finance. Year. af- i ter year they justly feel a deeper sense of se- curity in this the most important of government departments. Much has beenpublished about this remarkable man in the past week.-Apart from the hidebound party press it has all been complimentary. Even some of the Conservative ` papers have'been very mild in their criticism. As a matter of fact there doesn't appear much to find fault with. Mr. Robb himself says that work and-thrift are the only `sure roads to suc- cess. He ought to know- He has in this terse. sentence written a biography of his own life in its shortest possible form. In discussing the present system of paying hospital accounts for indigents through the county. councils, the Acton Free Press says: ``It is impossible to keep a close check on theseaccounts-and in that way many unwor- thy cases are paid for out of public funds. There is a possibility that it might occur that council- lors, in order to be good fellows with local peo- ple, would pay accounts at the county council that would not be sanctioned in the local coun- cil, where each case is known by the ratepay- ers. In this, the Free Press is quite astray. No- tice of the indigent being admitted is sent by the hospital to the county clerk who then notifies the municipality concerned. Thirty days is al- lowed the municipality to look into the account , and disclaim liability if it so desires. If the muni- b cipality does not disclaim responsibility the bill is paid and half charged to the municipality. It will thus be seen that the municipal councillors have every opportunity to protest any account which they consider improperly charged and the full responsibility rests on their shoulders. Followers of the sporting pages were -sur-I prised to read a Boston de`s patch-inlast Friday s dailies stating that a hockeyteam of Indians` from_ Barrie had been defeated by an over- whelming score in the Classic city. The des- patch probably referred to theteam of Tem- agami lndians which played here early in the season. We cannot conceive of any reason.why the Boston.scribes should pick on Barrie, un- less it is because Barrie is the best known out- ` post on the fringe of northern civilization and therefore best fitted the "average American s conception of Canadian geography. The marvel of it all is not to be found in the despatch, how- ever, but rather in the fact Toronto newspapers employ editors who would pass it for publica- tion. in this connection it mightbe said that a good many readers: of Toronto s press have long since ceased to marvel. ` * knitted wear, bought at ajvery low rate` on "the- dollar ? was successfullyprosecuted byjthe` Re- .tail`Merchants Association& for false advertis- ing. Evidence which was adduced showed that `the goods thus offered -for sale were not the _-products of manufacturers in bankruptcy and that their value, instead of being $75,000, was not more than $7,000. No merchant who ex-' l pects to continue to do business can afford to misrepresent things in his advertising. Honesty is the best policy in publicity as in everything else. Unfortunately some people have not learned this lesson _and the result of the prose- cution in this case should have a salutary effect on all such. ` ANOTHER GOOD ROBB` Bl_}D.(_iE'_l'A Canada`: illiteracy Much Reducdcl May crat:.;s._e, _But,S ti_l`l vain, 1: `OPINIONS or omens Town Bell : Sntiuiontnl Value _The curacy izune qi IIIU W_UUUIII' &VVlUBI `VIII IV-`V .
