THURSDAY, 'SEP ':1,4,' 1882
,
Although the spirit of. exclusiveness and
selfishness is not:a';6'6'6d or pleasant thing
for the coramunity,yet the indications are
.that these principles are'rapidly on the
increase, .as evidenced by the creation and
growth of rings and combinations in al -
,most every department and business 'of
life. Comparai$vely but a few years ago
' a guild, or -trade combination .wasconsid-
ered and treated as an enemy to the ad-
vance: of enlightenmentoand progress of
humanity, and means were used tobreak
down' barriers, fillup gulfs and unite the
interests and associations ofsoeiety; belief;
ing that the best interests of mlankind'were
notconflicting-and opposed,to each,other,
but were 'co=operative and collectively'
embracing. Whether -414S .Cffect,,Was the
result of the religious 'revival "thatrtook-
placedn the last century, or of the spirit
of enterpriseand' ambition that sprung up
in the early part of this, we cannot say,
but this we do know, that about _thirty-
five or forty years ago, the; feeling •ivas be
coming general that all dividing. lines be-
tween religious, social and''trade associa-
tions should be obliterated, and ,aspirit of
unity and community of interests estab'
lished. The .entire, abolition.;•of one
of the restrictive laws after:another took
place -free trade prrinciples.*ere rapidly
being promulgated and put in practice,•
the community exulting ,in' the "good
time coming." But it appears as :if"man-
kind was not fully prepared'sforsuch: ade,
gree of liberty and fraternity, and a feW.
years ago the tide set in in an oppo
site direction, and the jealous , feeling
and fear of successful business competition"
has grown little by little, till we' are ap-'

From the 1st ofJanuary to the 51st of
August last, there was constructed in he
United. States no less than •7,048 miles of

know the value of railroads, and also know
better than to give any road a monopoly

The Mitchell Advocate has got in hot

The Conservative organs are reiterating
the falsehood that. Mr. Blake never spoke
on the Boundary award.: Mr. Blake did
not speak in the Rouse .for the simple
reason that Mr. Mills spoke before pini
and was not replied to by any member .of
the House ; there was; therefore,, no new
ground for Mr. Blake to take up,: but Mr.•
Blake spoke on the public platform at St.
Catharines that we know (and', perhaps
other places also) and -his contention ;*as
that the decision of the arbitrators should
be final. The truth about the non -ratifi-
cation of the award is that the Quebec
Conservatives don't, like to, see Ontario
making progress as it is, and promise :to
support Sir John only en condition .of his
holding Ontario in .,heek,'iind he, sooner
than Ioose power, is willing to sacrifice
Ontario.
The Winnipeg Times takes no stock in'
the cry, set up by the Mail to make- the
:Dominion tariff an. issue in the Ontario'
elections. "Itis' to be .hoped;" says the,
Times, "that the convention which meets
at Toronto in a fewrdays'will not slake the
