EDITORIAL NOTES.
1T is now reported. that Hon. Joseph
Martin bas declared his intention not
to re-enter public life, and that either
Hon. Isaac Campbell or ex -Mayor
Jameson will be the Liberal candidate
to fill the vacancy in the Commons,
representation for Winnipeg, Both
are able and popular men.
r almost every central point in
the constituency of Macdonald, Mane
trials are yet in progess of Dominion
officials who are charged with the
ballot box stuffing at the last general
election. Sworn testimony has already
been given that at over a dozen
polling places far more Liberals voted
for Mr. Rutherford, their candidate,
than bad their ballots counted. 't'he
substitution of bogus ballots seems to
have been general. Objection is made
by Consevative papers that it is of too
searching a character. How Can the
exposure of these rascalities be too
searching? Out with the whole truth,
and let the real culprits have their
punishment.
AN address delivered by Mr. Ernest
Heaton, of.Gcderieb, bef. re the Farm
ers' Instituto of West Huron is full
of practical ideas on that all-import-
ant question of immigration, says
the London Free Press. Mr. Heaton
recommends the holding of a Conven-
tion in Toronto "to hammer out the
details," he says, "or at any rate to
find taut what there is to prevent the
Government carrying ottt some soul)
sbeme of settlement as I propose.''
He recommends that the convention
be held under the auspices of the
Fanners' Institutes of Ontario. Such.
8, convention, says Mr. Heaton, "will
be attended by delegates from the
. different Farmers' Institutes and
many others besides. The Boards of
Tr"ade;in our outlying districtswillsend
representatives to explain their re-
sources; the retail store keepers, who
are crowded out by the depart-
metal stores;the hundreds of printers
who have permanently lost their em-
ployment by the invention of the
linctype machine; the two thousand
tinachanics who are now starving
in. Toronto; the clel'4ymen and labor
'leaders, who are daily brought face
to face with hanger and starvation..
ail these people must be deeply
interested in a practical attempt to
lessen the tale of human. suffering."

A very in advised production,
pu'•i:orting to emanate from what is
called the protective Vigilance Corn,
mittee of Ontario, has been distribnt.
ed throughout the Province, and has
found its wry into the papers. This
production is in the shape of a etrcu-
lar, which has been sent out from
Toronto, and was addressed to
various individuals throughout the
Province. It is a most despicable
document, patterned after the once
celebrated "Green Eye -Opener,"
which was so liberally distributed in
some constituencies during the last
Provincial elections. This circular
charges that "an insidious conspiracy
bas for several months been at work
throughout the Dominion, aiming at
the overthrow of the authority of our
gracious soverign, the Queen and
Empress, and the annexation of our
beloved country to the 1.inited States.
Behind what is ostensibly a political
movement is plainly to be seen the
hand of ,the Roman Catholic church
the ever -watchful enemy of Protest-
ant Itherty. ' In conclusion, the.
circular advises the organizing of
associations in every district to report
the actions of those suspected of
annexation tendencies, If the parties
who issued this vile production could
be discovered, a year in the. Central
I'risoti would have a good iefluence
upon them. Because the Globe pub.
listed a fae-simile ot the circular
and commented upon it, the poor.
old demented Mail eharges its pater-
nity upon the leaders of the Liberal
party. It is not at all likely that
the leaders of either party have any-
thing to do with 1.t. The likelihood
is that it is the production of some
craek-brained f'auatic who is qualify-
ing himself either for an asylum or
a
prison. -Ex:

TRI DEAD MEAT TRADE.
The elaborate report just issued
in London on the British trade in
frozen meats naturally attracts much
interest in'this country, and it the
most active had dangerous competi-
tion of the Canadian export trade
in cattle and sheep. Its growth has
been really marvellous. Inside of
fifteen yearsit Yea`s increased steadily
in magnitude, until the demand for
frosen mutton alone is able to ab-
sorb 5,500,000 ihs from sheep and
lambs annually. Consumers in Gt.
Britain now reit' on this new; trade
to furnish eluse on one-third of their
mutton and lamb requirements, and
the volume of sales of home grown
mutton in the interval has
not
been
r
appreciably affected. In 188(1 the
total flocks in the United Kingdom.
numbered close on 29,000,000, of
which the proportion slaughtered,
represented a, supply for that year
of 310,000 cons of niutton and lamb,
whereas in 1$;13 the flocks totalled,
30,853,800, representing a food sup•
ply':i29,000 tons.
During the year 1806, there was a
falling off in the volume of trade, I.D.
creased imports from Australia more
than counter -balancing the shortage
from New %aaland, while River La
Platte arrivals maintained their for-
mer importance. Retail eonsunnp
tiara has.shown no material sbrinkeee
as stooks its store at the end of 1896
are probably lighter than in the
preceeding December, though the
tot receipts of frozen mutton, lamb
and beef for the closing year, are es.
