In South and Central Africa, the nat ivcs would break loose and chaos would reign., All these things might seem n long way from us lint their el feci would be terrible.

We aro Bghting for the millions upon millions of men whom we have freed from slavery, turned Into men and called to school. Germany with all her progress and culture has no conception of government of her colonies except by an I men. Her long war against the Herreros ia significant of the want of experience in colonization. The Uritish race may not be 0 success m many things, hut undoubtedly it is an extraordinary success at colonization and spreading freedom over the world. Bolt is to guard that freedom and to Bacrifice, if called upon, their blood in tbat cause, that our con tingents left on Saturday. They have taken up the burden laid upon us ill. gallantly and like men of tl Id old breed, if they go into thi BgW ing lines they will rendei o | d account of themselves and II thl then lives in our service at. least they have done something of which their relations and friends can They will have given then lives fot the world's freedom.

The "war boycott." that tlie Socialists of Europe were going to doolare iu the event of internal ional conllict hasn't, materialized, For years we have been told, and some of ps may have believed it, thai, the Socialists oi France would never lake up arms against their ■ brothers" of Germany and that tho Socialists across the Rhine felt the same way. War was to be stopped by a gigantic strike of the lighting men. lt sounded interesting, but the sight of Frenchmen and Germans docking to the colors is an action that, speaks more loudly than words.

The man who talks blue ruin and does business on the blue ruin plan is unworthy of a place in a rising city like Ibis. The patriot who does not yield readily to panic and who does his part to keep the Hag Hying at home is doing service for the empire. And his part, just now is to go upon his work seriously and without undue alarm.—Calgary Albertan, BOYCOTT GERMANY. What is the duty of Canadian business men who have bought goods irom Germany and Austria, which have not been paid for. II seems to us that their duty is plain. They should not send their money to their country's enemies. Tlie war which I he tun Herman empires is waging is a war of brigands fliey have stolen municipal funds and pillaged the hanks, to say nothing of the private bouses, in all the territory through which they have passed. They do n'.)t respect the private property of their enemies, Why should we respect the rights of their subjects? All the money due to Bllbjects Of the brigands hy subjects of the allied countries should be handed over t.i the government of th.-ii own countries to be expended ■ them as they see tit. —La Patrie.

In tlie inevitable disruption of international finance, which followed the outbreak of war, there was a temporary unsettling, Affairs had to be made to adjust themselves to the new conditions.

These were halcyon days for the grain grower, Canada, however, did not figure large as a grain exporter in those days. Conditions are different today. Western Canada has come into lhe limelight since Crimean days, and should the present war develop in the direction which it seems to be tending, the western farmer will more than make up in price for any crop shortage. One satisfactory thing about it is that the war has come along soon enough to enable the farmer to gel the increased value and not the middle-man, Grand Forks will have a tax sale Sept. 20, Iii order io conserve the civic finances there will bc no more band i cells in Grand Forks this year.
