Each Issue All Type in Newmarket All Printing Done at Home FRIDAY APRIL There appears to more than poetry the of the Telegram respecting toe legisla tion the enact ing to serve and please the Railway Corporations The Private Bills Committee last week gave its sanc tion to a empowering these com- to make and enforce laws for the government all persons using the Union Station also to appoint constables to aid them in enforcing the observance rules whether the same conflict- with the rights and liberties or people or otherwise Power is thus given a private corporation to criminals and prisoners citizens who do not submissively obey their behests Such legislation is dangerous to say the least Here are some tie things that are standing to the credit of Hon Mulock North Yorks represent ative in the House of Commons The complete reorganization of the rail way mail service the introduction of Imperial Penny Postage two cents postage to the United States and to all parts of the Dominion introduc tion of postal notes establishment of local dead letter branches in the chief cities the onecent bulk rate per lb on newspapers printed in Canada of postal stations in Can ada placing of city sorters on incom ing trains to Toronto and Montreal collection of mails by automobiles in troduction of paper and parcel recept acles in cities conveyance of mails by electric railway to and from con tiguous offices inception of a scheme of insurance on registered tetters pro motion according to merit in the postal service and the establishment of a Department Labor Constitutional The member for Que Mr Thos Murray has given notice in the Commons of a resolution looking to the reduction of representatives not only in the Federal- Parliament but also in Provincial Assemblies look ing likewise to the abolition of the Senate and Legislative Councils where such exist and generally to toss cum bersome and expensive civil govern ment A good many people tiie entire Dominion have long enter tained the notion that the country is burdened with too much machinery and costs too much to keep running smoothly Mr Murray appears to be among those who sympathize with this idea of Canada being overgov erned as his notice of motion clearly sets forth It is as follows in the opinion of this House the time has arrived for considering the advis ability of adopting such measures as may be deemed necessary with a view of amending the British North Amer ica act in the direction of reducing and limiting the representation in the Parliament of Canada and the several Assemblies of the Provinces also the abolition The Telegram considers the free and easy system of allowing County Attorneys to mix private practice with their public duties may work well outside of Toronto but To ronto and York County should be on a different footing to the rest of the Province and the local representa tives of the AttorneyGenerals De partment should not be allowed to compete with private practitioners If the present pay is not sufficient the Telegram favors combining the offices of County Crown Attorney and Clerk of the Peace as in days gone by when these offices were held by the late Fred and We are inclined to think the income of the County Crown At torney of about a year is quite enough without the combine We dislike combines anyway and there is nothing compulsory about re taining the office If the emolu ments are not adequate in the eyes of present Incumbents the city is full of legal lights who would be delighted to have authority to draw the income for the service performed We agree with our cotem these Government officials should not be allowed to practice before committees of the Legislature It gives an apparent sanction of the Government to the of the Senate of Canada engaged to Legislative Councils in the sever- n0 Provinces in which they now exist so that the whole machinery of gov ernment will be less cumbersome and expensive EDITORIAL Oar Society Column PERSONAL POINTS PLEASANTLY The last Ontario Gazette proclaims Hon Geo Foster Ottawa Sen ator Aatson Portage La Prairie and others as provisional directors of a new gold mining Company capital head office at Ottawa This looks as if Mr Foster intends to quit the political field A press despatch from Buffalo on Monday last states that fully people visited the grounds and build ings of the PanAmerican Exposition on Sunday In reply to a question the President remarked weath er is full of promise for us With a continuance of reasonably fair weath er the entire Exposition will be fin ished and ready for opening on May 1st with little or nothing remaining to be done The London Dally Mail in an interview with Hon Mr PostmasterGeneral of while on his way to Australia referring to the Canadian Atlantic cable project aid that the rates wilt not be more than onehalf the present ones and perhaps less The scheme Is not one lor direct profit any more than Is the post office system but the Canada will indirectly reap the advan tages In Hon Mr Mulock North York has live representative A bill to the Railway Act of has introduced by Mr Richardson MP in the Commons at Ottawa authorizing the Government of Canada after sixty days notice to expropriate any rail way to which the Railway Act ap plies In fixing compensation to be paid the Company whose railway is there shall be deducted

within the past six years Like in all money freely and everything Is done on a pretty extravagant scale J5 for instance is an ordinary charge tor a good dinner at a restaurant When possible start the horses that have been idle to work gradually One important item in sowing and clover seed is Advantage should be taken of every opportunity to push the plowing If the sows are to farrow early pro vide them with warm dry quarters Plan to plant some the garden as soon as the soil Is in good condi tion White is an item it is no advantage to sow or plant unless the soil is in good condition The meadows and growing wheat can often be rolled to advantage In the spring after the frost is all out of the ground Better sow or plant a smaller acre age under the best conditions than a large acreage with more or less dis advantages On the average farm there is little danger of sowing too much clover The mistake is usually made the other way If the work is all planned out in ad vancemuch time will be saved when the press of work comes Know what you want to do In a majority of it is the small farms that return the best per cent of profit on the money invested Dont slack up on feeding until the
