bren an ex- septionaliy severe one for the railways, uct so difficult on account of snow as the memorable winter three years ago, but very trying because of the exces sive cold.In Dakota and otber Northwestern States the reilways have had is trying time, and in Manitoba and the territorSes their inability to cope with the snow and frost has boem the \u2018cause of great suffering.A Canadian Northern train in Manitoba, lecoming {sapw-bound, caused tho death by freoz- |ing, of five of its passengers.| Winni- mE is now threatened with a coal famine, and in Montreal, the Herald reports, that ne C.P,R, train from Winnipeg bas reached there for three dave.In the Quebec district there has {been more or less irregularity, nearly jall mails being late, and even the Intercolorial trains between Montreal, | Quobsee and Halifax, though aided by [ J | several engines, have been many hours ilate.In pleasing contrast to all this, \u2018our local rcad, the old and reliable Lake St.John, has again estal-lished n ; record for ability to contend with ex- cssive cold and heavy snowfalls.Through all (he trying weather of the last month\u2014the coldest we have ever | known, aMersating with continuous and heavy falls of snow\u2014the trains on this road have experiences very little delay, and not one has been cancelled.And yet this road is the most difficult in Eastern Canada to operate, as it | rosses the Laureniain Mountains et \u2018an elevation of 1,500 feet, where the [thermometer has registered this month (the extraordinary (empersture of 64 \u2018below sero.Under these circumstances \"jt is not surprising that the general \u2018manager of the road, Mr.Sectt, and lis efficient assistants, Superintendant Bain and Roadmaster Carpenter, are receiving congratulations on all sides.Railway men all over Canada are (praying that the present severe weath- | aay moon ceasc.TICKET SCALPING.The bill to amend the act respecting the roalo of railway passenger tickets by other than authorized agents of the railway companies, is being opposed by the railways, who have issued a pamphlet containing their views which soem altogether reasonable.The pub- He.Tr, which ir also intercsted in the matter, may, perhaps be inclined at first sight to take un opposite stand, [but before ot does thés it would be iwell to look more closely and asccr- tain what it has to gain, and what it | stands to fone by the proposed change.Under the act of 1883, which is in | operation to-day, and which it is now ! proposed to amend.protection is given\u2019 \"te the publie against frauds on une suspecting travellers, and hardships ze.sulting from the sale of bad tickets to the poor and ignorant.[Its passage wax not dee to more theory, or to isolated instances of the imposition we have alluded to, but to the prevelence Vol an undoubted evil, which has now become estinet, but which it is extremely probable will come to life | again if (he present safe-guard be re- \"moved.\u201cIt

stopped, au would probably be the case.The principle of prohibiting the sale of an article Ly other than authorized | anse agents, on acoouut \u201cof the frands to which the practice may give rise, and the loss of revenues is not wholly unknown outside of railwes circles.We | have an analogous cam In the Post Office Department, when the sale of postage stamps by other than duly suthcrized agents is forbiädon under heavy penalties, sad.for precisely tho same reasons, the protection of the revenue on the one hand, and of the publio on the other, and under the law, as it stands, the sale by a private person of even a two cent stamp, renders him liable to punishment.It would be surely logical to retain this law on the Statute Book, and to elimi- pate the otber since they both depead on the same principle.THE AMEER IN INDIA The tour of India which the Ameer ol Afghanistan is now making is both unique and historic, It is really the first tour of India ever made by an Ameer nince the Indian administration was assumed by the British Government; for though two former Ameers visited Inda they did little more then crges the border.Shere AK, son of Dost Mohammed, was the fiat of these two, and be went only as far as Umballa, just across the frontier, to spend a day or two with Viceroy Lord\u2019 Mayo.The decond visit was made by Ameer Abdurrahman, who ia 1885 visited Viceroy Lord Dufferin at Rawal-Piadi, which is also just across the border, and his stay was likewise duced politica to a mere bunt for the spoils.There is truth im Mr.Bourassa's claim.But who is ible for this painful situation?A lew yeahs ago a public man was wd io be both coasdsterit sud wall It was charged against Sir John Nac Sonal that in the National Policy campaign be had stated that a re vision of the tariff was all that he intended, and that afterwards he ao- tually increased the duties.This was all to be an inexcusable breach of faith of which no public man should be fui statement of Sir John was not really inconsistent with his subsecuent action.But the criticism to whlch br was subjected shows that at that time the national conscience was tender.A public man was expected to be strictly honest in h as well es in Aotion.To-day it is different.A political loader may gu to the country promising low taxes, reduod expenditure, tres trade, and honorable adminiswation.He may do absolutely the reverse cf what he hax proposea.He may rais the taxce; be may double the outlays; he may abandon his fiscal principles, the may institute @ system of \"rake- off\u201d\u2014and who carre?It was ono assumed that the statement of a Minister m Parliament was equivalent to an oath.The Minister who should vilbble was led as unworthy the man who would falsify would be treated as unfit for decent cooiety.But under the tuition of recent days we have survived thes idens.A Premier can state in Parliament what he knows to be contrary to the fact, ane we do not mind.À Minister-\u2014as was the case with Mr.Oliver a lew days ago\u2014may through a prcoess of mental reservs- tion deny bat certain official action has been taken, althcugh the ireverse je tbe case, and we treat the matter as a rather clever instance of evasion.There was a time when a slight informality in clection procedure was viewed as a orime.Bribery and corruption were treated as cHences quite bevond excuse.To speak of a man aa a go t man was equivalent to bos, in ballot-bo stuffer os .Feet aud the o: x stuffer can by Ameer Habibullah, who is Abdur- {io day occupy offices in the gift of rahman's son and successor.The two [the ruling men whom they serve.former visits were made in troubled | can be little doubt that graft and the times, and were intended for political \u201crake-off\u201d would have shocked poli- and mili off ticians of ten years ago.Any Ad military effect, but the present \\ministration permitting such wrongs tour fs being \u201cmade at a time of would bo regarded with the utmost marked tranquility, and bas no ap- |distrust, and would be promptly cject-.parent object, either in politics or od from office.But we have learned statecrait.: to tolerate \u2018these things now, and it Habibullaly has, gone straight acroes seems to be agreed that wealth may be improperly aoguired, and that re- to Agra, which is in the heart of there be is to meet sitution is effected of the large contri- Northern India, a] bution §s made towards the fund which the present i 0 and a grand dur bar is to be then held.From Agra pays for thé buying of voters or the Piling of ballot-boxes.In shart,
