Rev. 0. M. Brant, D.D., Principal of
Queen's College, Kingston, returned
this week from a trip to Manitoba, and
for a few days was the guest of Rev. Dr.
Ure, at his cytufortable residence over-
looking Lke Huron.
On Wednesday morning a represents-
tive of Teta SWNAL paid his respects to
the distinguiahed colleeggiat, whom he
found in excellent health and spirits,
having been much benefitted by his re-
cent visit to the North-west.
The conversation naturally - turned
upon the trip of the Principal to the
Prairie Province.
"It is nine years since I lot visited
Manitoba," said Dr. Grant, "and al-
though the Province has not been tilled
up at the rate of 50,000 per annum, u
wore predicted, yet it has made extra-
ordinary prugreaa"
"Don't you think the policy of the
Government in locking up the lands had
much to do with retarding the fuller pro-
gress of the country f" was the enquiry.
"I du. In the adjoining States the
railways had thrown open the land to
settlers, while in Canada the Pacific rail -
wry was a bone of contention between
the two political parties. The Syndicate
will open up the country more freely.
The feeling in the country was evidently
in favor of a company. In so gigantic a
work some such scheme was necessary.
It would be impossible for use man W
control so great a work. A than might
be able to manage a canoe alone, but he
could not by himself control a steamboat
-he couldn't be, fireman, pilot, engineer
and purser.
And do you think, Doctor, that a com-
pany is better than Government control."
"I cannot say that. I am not anxious
to state personally what I think. How-
ever, tie feeling in the country was evi-
dently in favor of a company.:
"Don't you think the Syndicate has's
fat thing Y"
"Well, hardly. On some sections
they willdo well, but at the eastern and
weetayt MAI they will have a difficult
oovnt rjt to traverse, and will not• blse* so
"fat" a thing on that acoount-that is, if
they build the line faithfully aed well.
I think, however, that the character of
the work done by the Government will
be superior to that done by a company.
And for this reason: The Government
is watched by about hall the people, who
are interested in finding fault and Rick-
ing flaws in any public work. If pour
work is dotie, the country hears of it,
and often it will be represented to be
worse than it really ia. With a oompsny
it is different. It is not in the interest
of many to find fault with 'its work.
Free passes are given to correspondents
who write up the routes in the most
favorable way. If we were to examine
the construction of many railways built
by companies we would find the work
done on Government railways far ahead
of it. The Government built the Inter -
colonial railway, and a splendid 'railway
it is It will stand fur years a monu-
ment of engineering skill."
"Another .trawback to emigration to'
Manitoba," resumed the Principal, "was'
the fact that nearly all of the influx hai

This causes great warty and annoyance.

He thereupon put it away, Samar inti gratton to Manitoba. I remember that,

body's brains, and then perhaps he will tis be exposed to so much inspection.
Sometimes the cutouts officers would be
vulgar and rude. Now that the Inter -
whittle! is built it is different."
And the Doctor shrugged his shoulders
as he thought of running the gauntlet of
a lot of suspicious officials.
"And you think Manitoba will he s

"It will grow very fast, although not
so fast perhaps as some would have us

A WARM WEEK.
The Mercury Danelag Around Slued.
Since last Friday the heat has been
unusually great fur Goderich.
On Saturday the stores did not do
their usual amount of business, as maty
ladies felt unable to do their customary
shopping.
The evening coilgregstions were small-
er than usual to the churchmen Sunday,
and preacher and people suffered front
the sultry atmosphere.
At the Park the heat appeared W be as
intense as it was up town. The very
waters of the lake seemed to be toe easy
to form a wave.
It was very warm.
On Monday the heat was unabated.
On Tuesday the thervtometer ran over
ninety, and the people asked "How long
is this going to last f"
Wednesday was as hot as any pre-
vious day. The sun glared fiercely down
from a cloudless sky, and at noon wdted
manand beast, and the early vegetables in
the grocery windows.
The afternoon was the most remark-
able, however.
The sun grew as red es blood; the sky
changed to a murky yellow, then W a
dingy pee green, and finally turned to a
bluish, leaden -grey tint.
At three o clock a photograph could
not be taken. A gentleman sat in vain
for a picture, and so strange was the
color of the tun -light that no shadow
could be secured. The spotless white
shirt front, when viewed through the in-
strument, looked yellow --a color over
which photography has no power
On Thursday a sprinkling of rain
canoe, but although there was leansun-
shiae, the atnwsphsre was close and stif-

The air is filled with smoke from sur-,
rounding bush Brea, and citizens report
cinders of a light fleecy nature falling at
times in town.
The wells are going dry all about
town. In fact it is sed that cem-tai*
skinflints are selling waiter. •
A tea at present would likely make a
great sweep. The scarcity of water
would almost lay the town at the mercy
of the flames.
If the drought continues, water will
become so searoe and expensive that it
will be a fashionable drink.
