S. breadstuffs She would have done much better had it not been that Waterways are frozen up four months of every year, and has been a shortage of railway cars to transport her dstuffs to the Atlantic seaboard However, she got $103,000,000 worth through to Great ritain alone Now, good old philanthropic Uncle Sam is about to his canal Miss Canada is preparing to use that canal as a new to Liverpool, open every day in the year. Her Pacific ports are only 600 to 1,000 miles away from her main raising territory. She is developing these ports, ing her railroad grades and expects to save her farmers cents a bushel on their wheat. in, what is called Eastern Canada, exported, in 1912,! 60,000,000 of minerals, metals and manufactures thereof, com- in the Liverpool market with similar manufactures older factories, and her possibilities for expansion of manufactures are practically unlimited Miss Canada is preparing to send her metal manufac-| through our canal as a new route to new markets in and South America, Japan, China and Australia Maybe that canal is going to awfully “hurt” Uncle Sam's < Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba can be made fully ten times the quantity of breadstuffs they're jucing, and Canada’s metal and mineral resources ly been even scratched, as yet | If Uncle Sam has any further proposals to make to that ced Canadian person, he'd better be studying them up.

Many people prefer musical com- edy no doubt, but as there fm an inherent love for good music in nearly every one, | am sure grand opera would be supported in Seat- tle under proper conditions. Not only. high prices confronted us, but the songs were sung in a tongue unfamiliar to the majority Let us boost for the Standard Grand Opera Co. ee 8. SAVE IT FOR THEM Editor The Star: I herewith sub- mit a plan of thrift which, if exer- cised among Seattle workers re-} ceiving only moderate wages, am) sure would result in a rather en- viable bank account. Let the pay master each week re-| tain from thelr wages, $1, $2 or perhaps even $3, the #ame to be placed in a bank in a savings ac- count for them to bear 4% interest Let it be understood they withdraw it any time they please. At first thought you may suppose they will immediately withdraw it, but practice of this, I believe, would show that knowing ft wi there, they invariably would de- cide to leave it there for a rainy day. R. 8. LEAVE MEXICO ALONE Editor The Star: If one man kills another for gain, we call it murder. Why justify wholesale murder? We do not want our sons and brothers to be killed or maimed when there is no necessity for it, The war in Mexico has to do with the people there, who are trying to adjust things to sult themselves. Let them do as they wish, but let us keep out of it MRS. M. H, OPPOSES A WAR Editor The Star; In behalf of a poor woman, please protest to the presidest of the United States that in God’s name, he do everything in his power to prevent war with Mexico. It is not dollars and cents we need, but our young men, whom God bae given to us, should be saved for a better fate than to be shot down as a sacrifice for money. I have three boys, one of whom is in the regular army. MRS, B, ©, FIGHT COST OF LIVING Editor The Star: The common people are having enough trouble fighting the high cost of living. Let the moneyed men and corpora- tions do the fighting if they want war with Mexico.
