An important conference was held in Ottawa this week for the purpose ‘Ofdiscussing what practical step can be taken to combat the dread disease of consumption and other 'forms of tuberculosis which are carrying cfi‘ more of our people annually than all other contagious diseases put to- gether. The meeting was presided "over by the Governor-General "and attended by representative men, medical and lay, from all over the Dominion. It was decided to form an association along the lines of that recently organized in the Old Coun- try under the presidency ofthe King, and a strong executive was elected. An active educational campaign will be at once entered upon in order that the people may realize that with proper care the disease may be pre- vented, orif not taken in time to be prevented, can be materially arrest- ed; and in addition efforts will be ‘made to secure means by public aid and private subscription to establish The estimates brought dowu in Parliament a few days ago reveal a satisfactory condition of affairs, f r there is a. decrease in capital account (for permanent works) of nearly $4,- 000,000, and in ordinary expendi- ture of over $2,000,001). 'l‘he yum c debt has been reduced over $600,000» The principal decreases in ordinary expenditure are in public works, militia, railways and canals, and government of the North West, and the chief increases are in the post ofiice, the administration of justice, and interest on the public debt. The big reduction in the capital account is in the amount asked for railways In the course 'of a speech in the House one day last 'week the Premier explained with reference to the in- yalided soldiers returned from South hfrica and the relatives of those who lost their lives there, that the Im- perial authorities would make the same allowances as were. made to the men of the regular army. What that would be was not yet known, but if the amount proved inadequate, he was satisfied Parliament would be prepared to supplement it by suffic- ‘ient to bring it up to the Canadian standard.
