IX SASKATCHEWAN
On July 1st next .455 liquor li
cences now operative In the great
young province of Saskatchewan, Do
minion of Canada. will be cancelled.
The dement ol private gain wlU on
that day be eliminated from the
traffic, and in place o£ the whole
sale stores now iu existence only
twenty-two or tweay-three estab
lishments in which it will tw .pos
sible to obtain liquor will remain.
No in'oxicants may be consumed on
any o£ these premises, or In any
placs other than a private dwelling,
and such sales as will be. possible
ciust be carried on under the con
trol of a commissioner directly re
sponsible to the legislative as
sembly, and -under such regulations
as cannot, it is believed, fail to
restrict the traffic greatly.. This,
In brief, is a summary of the bene
ft-s expected to result from the
%,-islation on the liquor traffic ob
tained mainly through the effort an
•:ifli ence of Premier Walter Scott.
The method of restriction differs
from the local option plan. from
t'.p higl. license plan, from the dis
pensary plan. The legislation is
not prohibitive.. There is provision
for the establishment, through em
ployment of the .local referendum,
of government liquor stores, where
buch may not be found when the
act goes into operation; but the to
tal number of these for the entire
province must never exceed eighty
two. The same power that es
tablish these stores may also dises
tablish them, and this constitutes
a system akin to local option, ex
cept that the stores are to be un
der covmment supervision.
But all of these arrangements,
it is well understood, are in the
nature o" temporary contrivances,
and all are leading to eventual pro
hibition. The temperance societies
of the province have indorsed them
as ne essary compromises. Prem
ier Sco-t and his following have
not accomplished through this leg
islation everything that the antl-U
q-icr sentiment of the province de
mands, but they have apparently ac
conu>'.;»:;~d everything pcssible now.
Premier Scott has been attacked
from many points and on many
grout.is because ot his leadership
in th-j fight to free Saskatchewan
earlv in its history from the bar
room Might. One of the latest of
these attacks came from the leader
of the opposition, Mr. Willoughby,
wno claimed that the government
v.*as proceeding without a mandate
from the people. Mr. Scott demol
ished this argument by.calt:'ng at
teuticn, on the occasion of the sec
and reading of the bill, to the fact
that shortly after the outbreak of
the war, and before the Scott anti
liquor policy had been announced,
Mr. .Willoughby himself had said
th.« U e government should not
oulv restrict the hours for the sale
of liquor, but on its own initiative
and without submitting the matter
io the legislature close all bars
during the period of hostilities.
Premier Scott of Saskatchewan
has been wise as well as morally
courageous in his fight for the re
demption and future protection of
the splendid province of which he
is the head.

appears the following: "California Is
a wild and almost unknown land.
| Throughout the year It la covered 'with
I dense fogs, as damp aa unhealthful
, In the Interior are volcanoes and vast
I plains of shifting snows, which some

The Use of Iron.
Irou has been known to men for a
rcry long tloie. In the time of the As
syrians It was extensively used. Iron
saws, knives and other tools having
been found by Layard nt Nineveh.
Homer refers to the forging of Iron,
while the hardening and tempering of
steel appear to have been operations
In common use among the early
Greeks. The employment of a kind of
bellows for the forging of tools, pre
sumably of iron, figures In Egyptlas

Merchants Should Seek
1 Trade In the Markets
1 of South America ::
Ey EDWARD E. PRATT, Bureau Chief of the Department of Commerce
THE economic condition of the countries to the south of us is not
nearly as important as the amount of common sense which our
manufacturers mav or may not have. IS THE PRESENT TIME
AX OPPORTUNE ONE FOR OPENING UP NEW MARKETS IX
SOUTH AMERICA? EMPHATICALLY, YES!
Is the present time an opportune one for selling goods? Probably
not so emphatically, no! And here is the difference. This is the time
to st-nd a salesman, or, better, a business diplomat, into South America
to study the markets, to learn the country, to meet the people, to be
come acquainted with the trade and to lay the foundations for future
business.
To expect, however, to obtain large financial returns from t'lis new
and difficult field is only the folly of the uninformed. You would
scarcely expect a salesman in a new domestic territory to show a profit
on his initial trip. Then why expect it in a foreign territory ?
What I have said with reference to South America applies to a largo
part of the world. In the first place conditions are readjusting. They
are fast becoming normal.
* *
IN THE SECOND PLACE, NOW IS THS TIME FOR THE MANUFAC
TURERS OF THIS COUNTRY TO WAKB UP AND BUILD UP THEIR
TRADE. IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, n* they cannot reach
the diseased portion of tho car. There is
only one way to euro deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness Is
caused by an Intlamed condition of tho mu
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube, when
this tube Is Inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or Imperfect hearing, and whsn It la
entirely closed. Deafness Is the result, and
unloas tho Inflammation can be taken out
and this tubo restored to Its normal condi
tion, hcarlnjc will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten aro caused by Catarrh,
which Is nothing but an Inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure.
