EDITORIAL NOTES. Ma. G. T. BAIRD, of New Bruns- wick, has been appointed to the Senate. There are still ten vaeancies to be filled TRE Roseberry Government was defeated in the Imperial Parliament, on Friday last, and resigned on Sat- urday. Their resignations were ac- cepted and the Marquis of Salisbury was sent for by the Queen. That gentleman has accepted the respon- sibility of forming a cabinet, on con- dition that the Liberals will assist in closing up the business of the session. .A general election will likely be held next month. ACCORDING to the advices furnish- ed by the two leading commercial agencies in the United States, busi- ness in the chief industrial centres across the line is altogether in a more flourishing and satisfactory condition than has been the case for a long time. Trade is said to be approach- ing the activity of 1892, and in some directions the advance is so rapid as almost to assume the proportions of a: boom. For June the bank clearings • are 26 per cent. beyond those for; June Last year. One important, factor in the situation is continued, favourable crop news, and another, the steady confidence with which people are replenishing exhausted stocks. • I. O. G. T. GRAND LODGE. GOOD TEMPLARS RECEIVE CIVIC HONORS AT TORONTO -STANDING OF THE ORDER. Toronto, June 22. -The Good Templar Grand Lodge began its an- imal session at Temperance Hall on Thursday, with Mr. J. D. Andrews, of Hamilton, grand chief templar, presiding. About a hundred and fifty members were present. Shortly after the opening a felicitous address of welcome was tendered by His Worship Mayor Kennedy on behalf of the city. The grand chief tem- plar expressed deep regret that. the order, which in the past has been such an important factor in advan- cing temperance work in this prov- ince, should have fallen within the .past five years from. a membership .of thirteen thousand to less than five ,thousand. He declared that unless radical and successful measures are adopted the Good Templar order will in Ontario soon be a thing of the past. The report of Mr. F. S. Spence, -who succeeded Mr. Thomas Lawless as grand secretary a year ago, showed that, commencing the year •with an actual membership of 6,552, and 158 lodges the order had, on .April 30, 4,961 members, and 142 'lodges, a decrease of 1,591 members •and sixteen lodges. The organiza- tions' efforts resulted in twenty- seven lodges being started. Forty- eight g juvenile temples reported with a menibership of 1,845.. The financial report was highly satisfactory. It showed that the debt of last year had been wiped out and a balance of assets amounting to 4814.33. Two representatives of the Right 'Worthy Grand Lodge, shortly to be held in Boston, Messrs.•3. G. Tolton and Stanford, of England and Wales were in attendance. ' An illuminated address was pre- sented to 111:1. Thomas Lawless, for many years grand secretary for On- tario.

Those who were favorable to the he took occasion to urge very strong- change pointed out what they ly upon the local medical examfners thought to be advantages which ac - the importance of great carefulness °rued to other orders through making in the selection of risks. He . also urged that greater attention be given to the development of the fraternal and social side of the work of the order -there was room for improve- ment in that direction. He intro- duced -considerable argument sus- taining the fraternal system of in- surance, incidentally Ioading-up the delegates with ammunition for push- ing the good work. He eulogized the economy • and excellence of management which had characteriz- ed the order from its inception and which gave to it special characteris- tics and differentiated it from those organizations which expended so much energy and cash in mere spectacular display. He drew at- tention to the investment of $100,- 000 with the Dominion Government and to the safe investment of the other funds of the society in charter- ed banks. Amongst his recomnten- dations were: :The adoption of a system of accident insurance, the adoption of a new ritual, and the conferring of the honor of Past High Chief Ranger upon members who served for three continuous years on the Executive Committee. The report of the High Secretary, Mr. Thomas White of Brantford, was a model document with respect to concise form and logical divisions. It was the eighth annual report pre- sented by this officer. From it are gathered the following important items : The order entered the year just concluded with 18,641 members and closed with 20,791, a net increase of the year of 2,150 members. There were 61 new courts instituted during the year, 8,000 members were in- itiated and 940 dropped. Certificates were written for $3,414,000. There were 102 death claims for $105,647.- 10. The average death rate for the last ten years was as near as may be the same as the death rate for the past year, viz, 5.02.
