Canada, without Prohibition and with a low tariff when compared with the American, last year experienced a percentage of gain in industrial de- velopment said to exceed that of the United States six-fold, according to statistics prepared by the Royal Bank of Canada. The same authority says that 30,000 Canadians who had moved from their native land to become Americans returned in 1928 because of the ‘“greater prosperity” there. That would seem to dispute the theory that to Prohibition is due American prosperity and to support the contention that America’s trade and industrial growth and development are due more to the circumstance that the United States is the largest free trade area in the: world than to the fact that we have the world’s highest protective tariff. With a percentage of gain in industrial growth exceeding that of the United States six-fold it is not difficult to believe those Canadian statistics which show that 30,000 Canadians who had gone to the United States returned to the land-of their birth in 1928. Fly-swatting time is here. Every fly killed now means fewer flies later in the season. Lord Rosebery. (New York World.) A spoiled favorite of fortune, a spiendid dis- OPPOSING POPULAR PLEBISCITES. | The refusal of the dry Illinois Senate to allow the people of the State to vote on the quesnon: of repealing the State Prohibition enforcement law" indicates the fear of the Anti-Saloon League of changing public opinion. The “Drys, Consolidated,” ' oppose with might and main the submission of any phase of Prohibition enforcement to a popular vote. They are in the saddle and they will ride whether the people like it or not. They fought tooth and nail against submitting the question of State en- forcement to a vote in Wisconsin, just as they previously had done on other phases of Prohibition in New York, Massachusetts and the other States| in which there have been plebiscites. I Yet in spite of the organized efforts of the strongly intrenched Anti-Saloon League political organization the vote in the Senate against the proposed refendum was close—21 to 28. The measure had been passed through the House by an over-| whelming majority. ! Well, these rough-riders are running toward a; fall. There is no doubt about that. Public opinion will prevail in the end in the United States and those who persistently refuse to submit a question to the votes of the people will, in the end, lose public confidence. i It is significant that those in Alaska who op- posed submitting the Alaska Bone Dry Act to a plebiscite was Volsteadians. EXPORT DEBENTURE MAY RISE AGAIN. appointment, a brilliant hero whose career ran into fulllity, the late Lord Rosebery is one of the most picturesque figures in the last half-century of Brit- ish politics. He was twenty-three when, chosen by Gladstone to second a motion, he made his first spech in the House of Lords. With commanding gifts, he seemed to stand on the threshold of re- markable achievements. There was attributed to him a triple ambition, which he completely ful- filled. He would marry the richest heiress in Eng- land—and he married Hannah Rothschild. He would win the Derby—and his horse Ladas won it. He would be Prime Minister—and pushing Sir Willlam Harcourt to one side, he was Gladstone's successor in that high office. It was the contrast between the dazzling rise of Rosebery and his sudden and complete eclipse which made his career so striking. He did his country conspicuous service in a variety of sifices. Devoted to Gladtsone, he was his able lieutenant. At first Chairman of the London County Council, he was practically Mayor of Greater London and labored with prodigious energy. He was a shrewd head of the Foreign Office, and worked sixteen hours a day. When Gladstone resigned at eighty-four and Queen Victoria sent for Rosebery, his great opportunity seemed to have arrived. Yet fate proved the mo- ment inauspicious. The Liberal Party was divided; Harcourt hated his successful rival; the party pro- gram was impracticable; foreign difficulties were impending. In two years, with the Boer War at hand and Rosebery’s imperialist views clashing with those of the anti-imperialist Liberals, he resigned. The schism was complete and Rosebery was not the man to bring about reunion. In a sense Lord Rosebery outlived his fame. After he refused office with Campbell-Bannerman, he was a lonely oracle, Yet he remafhéd an in- tellectual influence; his books on Pitt, Chatham The circumstance that the export debenture plnniand Napoleon, and his masterly portrait of Ran- would be just as germane as a provision of the Tariff Bill as it would be in the Farm Relief Bul‘ may have had something to do with its apparent| elimination from the latter measure. We may look for its appearance as an amendment to the tariff| bill before it is finally voted on in the Senate. The wheat surplus and one dollar a bushel suggests that the farmers would do a lot to clear the way for the big 1929 crop. Twenty-one cents a bushel bounty is important when the price of delph Churchill, attest his splendid powers. Nor will his strange combinations of high gifts and weak- nesses, of triumphs and failures, soon be forgotten. Often the fellow who howls loudest for law en- forcement has his cupboard fullest of homebrew and other intoxicants.—(Florida Times-Union.)

Why We Never Have Missed a Smoke “There's always something to be thankful for.” “Yes, think what a heck of a fix we would have been in if the matchmakers had become discour- aged and shut up shop when the patent lighters began to flood the markets.” Avoiding All Risks “Why won't you go up in an air- plane?” “I've just paid the doctor a whale of a big bill to patch me up so I can stay on this earth awhile long- er and I'm not going to take any chances on shuffling off until I've at least got the worth of the money I paid him.” More or Less True Another cause of divorce is the fool habit a young man has of losing his head over a bit of femi- nine beauty that proves as useful to him as a helpmate as a para- chute that won't open does to an aviator jumping from a burning air- plane. It's an ideal love if they both can stay as sweet as peaches through the housecleaning ordeal. No matter how wise a man is supposed to be you'll find he knows more ways of making a fool of him- self than a good cook does of fix- ing potatoes. Whoever first thought up that expression, “The human form de- vine,” wasn’t looking at either a skeleton or cornfed in a modern outfit—with the accent on the out!

It used to be parents who beat their children who were considered cruel, now it is the‘parents who in- sist on making a distinction be- tween necessities and luxuries. A modern girl hates to go out with an old-fashioned boy even more than she does in an ancient model car. Old married life is that time when the only time a man remem- bers there is such a thing as a flor- ist is when he has to send flowers to some friend’s funeral.
