Any Cal- gary minist r of the Gospel, who attempted a criticism, would doubtless take his life (or his position anyway) in his hands in so doing. But what are our ministers for, if not to restrain low passions and set up a high standard of living? Is.not their mission the holy one of walking in His steps ? Are they to follow or to Tead public opinion ? If Calgary staged a bull fight would the min- isters of that town fall for it ? And where- in is the difference between a Mexican bull fight and the act of roping and throwing a steer ? One is no more cruel than the oth- er, and both have long since been placed on the taboo list by all ivitized communities. We wait with interest to hear how mod- ern Christianity, as represented by the Cal- gary ministers, will handle. this subject from their respective pulpits.. It depends upon them as to whether future Stampedes o GOOD WAGES PAID. THE high wages which are being paid for unskilled labor in the West are a most potent factor in depleting the ranks of the men who'come from the East to assist with the harvest. In Medicine Hat,where every effort is being strained to complete all manner of work before cold. weather sets in, thirty cents an hour is being paid. The OC. P. R. Telegraph Co. pays 2.50 per day on its construction gangs and the Al- berta Government is offering 3.00 a day in connection with the extension of its tele- phone lines. Not many harvesters will re- turn home. NINE London, Eng., Boy Scouts who were recently. drowned as the result of the foundering of'a sailing craft on which they were proceeding to their summer camp, were buried with great ceremony the other day. Their bodies were conveyed from the scene of the accident on a torpedo boat de- stroyer which was specially commissioned for the work by Mr. Winston Churchill, the present head of the Admrialty. 0 THE visit of the Vice-Regal party to Medi- eine Hat is still a month away and those of us who have friends in the sur- rounding country have plenty of time to in- vite them to come in and spend the day. This is a matter that:should not be oyer- looked. at AND NOW another big canal system is being mooted, the project being to pierce the isthmus of Panama at Nicar- agua. With a competitive. route estab- lished, our American friends would ger- tainly be forced to sit up and take notice. see gp MORE like New York every day the Hooper and Hueckvale block, now un- der construction, is to have two additional stories, and an elevator will be installed. Some class to that building. ee AS the City Engineer announces that ad- ditional street crossings are to be con- structed this fall, it is to be hoped that the Esplanade will not be overlooked in this re- spect. Tt needs an intimate allowed to sell his grain will or will not be able to feature steer-rop- ing as an attraction. - PUBLIC OPINION. Winnipeg Free Press. It is hard for those -who live under the safe and almost ideal conditions which exist on the centre of this continent fully to realize the sus- picious conditions of used neutrality un- der which the nations of Europe live, or the intrigtiessjyhich go on day by day in the -ountries across the Atlantic to gain some icied or real advantage in the struggle for commercial suprem: and world domina- jtion. It all seems unreal at this-distance. acquaintanee with modern diplomacy and a close study of his- tory, not as a mere matter of events or dates, but as a chronicle of motives, ambi- tions and planned moves towards definite ends, to enable one intelligently to under- stand the moves on the checker board of the nations. EDMONTON Bulletin: Hon. Mr. Foster made a most unsatisfactorily truthful speech at the Toronto exhibition the other day. He said it-was essential that the Wes- tern farmers build barns in which to house the present year s crop, as there was no hop that the railways would be able to take the grain out fast enough to prevent congestion. That is putting the matter to the farmer with cruel frankness. He must build barns or take the consequences. It is useless to expect the Government to do anything to preent congestion other than urging the railway companies to run their trains as rapidly as possible. The thought of opening new outlets is not in the isterial minds. They stand, apparent- quarely by the policy upon which the; ere elected that the farmer must-net- in in the United States less he become infectd with disloyalty. Nor have they found any alternative scheme for expediting the outward movement. of the erop.. The farmer must, therefore, help himself; the ministers have no intention of recanting and helping him by accepting the proffered market to the south. The Minister of Trade and Commerce says so. qe Ng NSE THE BORDER LIGHTS. A little more tired at close of day; A little less anxious to have our way; A little less ready to scold and blame, A little more care for a brother name; And so we are nearing thejaurmey s end, Where time and eternity meet and blend. A little less care for bonds and gold, A little more zest in the days of old, A broader view and a saner mind, And a little more love for all mankind; And so we are faring a-down the way That leads to the gates of a better day. A little more love for the friends of youth, A littte-tess-zealfor-established truth, A little more.charity in our views, A little less thirst for the daily news; And so we are folding our tents away And passing in silence at close of day. A little more leisure to sit and dream, A little more real the things unseen, A little nearer to those,ghead, With visions of those long-loved and dead; And so we are going where all must go, To the place the living may never know. o z THIS DATE IN HISTORY.
