valuable in preventing the decay of your teeth   15 cents.

There was a full meeting of the
City Oounoil last night, rather an
unusual occurrence of late, owing
to the business engagements of aldermen elsewhere.
A petition waB presented from
tbe inhabitants of Nickel Plate
flat, asking for a better service of
water. Referred to the Water and
Light oommittee.
A proposal was made by the
Barns slaughter bouse whioh will
be threshed out in committee.
Referring to the tax writs, Al
derman McDonald wanted to know
whether the city solicitor could
oolleot and yet sit in judgment as
oity management.
Mayor Clute said it was a delicate question.
City Solicitor Nelson said there
were three cases in which judgment had been oonfessed and
consequently there was only
a formality to be entered up.
The City Solioitor then went-on
mildly to remark that Alderman
MoDonald might trust him to
know biri duties.
Alderman McDonald equally
courteously retorted tbat he was
merely asking a question It any
suoh oase oould be taken up, if any
protest were made.
City "Solicitor Nelson deolared
that he oould not think of suoh a
thing aa trying a oase as polioe
magistrate which he was prosecuting as city solioitor.
The Oounoil then hurriedly
adopted the Trades Lioenoe Bylaw and adjaurned into caucus for
the vagne purpose, as intimated by
His Worship the Mayor, of considering the Lighting Franohise and
other important publio matters.

wounded, and 300 men, 100 of
whom are wonded.
"A preliminary report from the

THE JAPS.
The viotory of the Japs on bolb
lapd .end sea haB been met with
surprise, both upon the continent
of Europe and in the United Statec
The reason is twofold. One is the
"dammed nigger" feeling whicb
tbe  average  white man   regards
1 nun.**,     ou
any raoe whose skin-is not as wnite hy true ^
aa bis own.   Jn ancient times no
doubt the Persians and the E.yp
tiana looked upon the white race
with equal contempt, and  to this
day the Chinaman's , opinion of all
other races outside of his own, tbe
Korean and the Jap, ecologically
related, iB summed up in the one
word—barbarian.   Still the exist
ence of this feeling made it hard of
belief tbat the white race could be
beaten by anybody else, even if
they adopted  white methods to do
so.   The other reason is tbat for
long Russia bas posed as the bully
of Europe antl the defeat of Napo-
..son at   Mosoow,   though   the ele
ments won tbe battle for Russia, is
remembered when the crushing of
bis power at Waterloo by Wellington is forgotten.   Indeed the Germans,  who  lost every battle   for
many years they fought against
Napoleon,  claim   they   won   tbat
battle themselves by a general who
never   won   a   battle before  and
never won one afterwards, and one
who at the time was acting upon a
plan of oampaign under the orders
of the Commander in Chief, the
Duke of Wellington.   This is mere
jealousy or national vanity, but the
Very faot that it has been indulged
fn naturally had the tendenoy to
unduly   exalt   the  half  civilized
Russians, and when the power of
the Tsar is really put to the test
, and fails, every detractor of Oreat
Britain is naturally surprised.
Whatever tbe shortcomings of the
British in South Afrioa they pale
before the nrsssness of the Russian
or the stupidity of tbe German war
offioes ib their dealings with Japan
and South weet Africa, respectively.
ie true the other should be so also.
Bat it would be well to remember
the predicament in which Henry
George  plaoed    Herbert  Spencer
when he oompared his later "scientific" writings with 'his earlier Social   Statics.     Herbert . Spencer
could only get out of the hobble by
saying that theie were two kind of
ethics, the one transcendental and
the other sooial. '■ On thia. ground
of theory Henry George thereupon
held up the perplexed philosopher
to ridicule.   Yet  Herbert Spencer
was nearer right than he cimld explain to the satisfaction  of Henry
George.    -'Scientific"   theory   too
often treats human beings as mere
automata and not as creatures of
flesh acd blood,   Given  a set of
circumHtances. and  ons man will
act one way and another another.
In fact under tbe same  oiroum
stanoes a man may not act twice
alike.   So while it may be perfectly   that U all   were
savers, business , would oome tp an
end, for business oannot exist with
out spenders, yet it is not true to
say that no one should be a saver.
For as long as human nature remains aB it is, some will be spenders to the end of time, and tbe
man who saves will oertainly ob
tain an advantage over the spender
in tbe long run.   But whioh is tbe
most beneficial  to the community,
the spender or the saver, it would
be hard to say.    Only a dogmatic
political economist would, dare to
oome to a  conclusion.   And one
thing   is  sure,   and   that is that
whatsoever conclusion was arrived
at  another    political    economist,
equally dogmatic, would assert the
opposite to be the case.

SAVING..
An article in a Winnipeg paper
lays down tbe axiom that were all
men savers, there would be a serious reduction of credits, i. e. that
banks wonld find it difficult to pay
, interest.   The argument ie not new
and has been aocepted by a thinker
and writer of politioal   economy.
Still it must l)p remembered that
there is more guess work in poliiic-
al economy than in anything that
is dubbed ''scientific." True science
is   axiomatic   It   bears   itB   own
proof, such as two and two make
tour.   But scientific theory  is no
more worthy of   belief than   the
dreams of the poets.   In fact the
dreams of the poets seemed to be
the longer lived of the two classes
of imaginings.   However, although
the argument may be taken m re]
or less as axiomatic, the eorollary
by   no means necessarily follows
that saving is bad political economy
All things are relative.   Regarded
as a syllogism the one follows from
