The policy of detraction pursued by Certain class of ,politicians is alike dis, editable to themselves and injurious ,o the country. It is a proverb 'whose 'truthfulness is equalled only by ;its homeliness, "'Tis a filthy bird that foals its own nest". What possible .;rood can aeerue from a systematic sottrse of cletraetioil whichexalts the meigliboring republic at the expense; of € a sada? 'We never find Americans ;igi'1 a1ing ,down their country, inueh as they may dicier on political question, both parties vie with each other ill making it appear to outsiders that the United States are ahead of all creation. As an illustration of how differently 'aaIneti i 1 ad fan journals act, the 1e To ren- Gtobe has for the last few years in- razriably decreed both the Government fond the country, representing the for- mer as a set of plunderers and the lat- ter as a "wilderness". Not long ago, that -unpatriotic journal exalted every thing America.., specking in terms of highest praise' of trexes and Kansas :Dakota and Western States, to the dis- naragemeut of our own North West erritery. Recently, however, since re. ?oats have reached us of poor crops and structive cyclones and heavy snort �.nge°indebtedness borne by farmers in the American States, -leading, as in She ease of hundreds of families from Dakota,to their crossing over into Can- adian territory to better their fortunes, —the Globe and other gait newspapers 'have tuned their attention to the *re- erl:able growth" of Washington ter - eatery as a contrast to the state of things revealed by the last Dominion census. Those unpatriotic detractors of their torntry delight in jubilating over the geowth and prosperity of some of the -Western States, while they speak dis- 3eriragingly of Canada; forgetful of the lelemomenal growth of, Vancover and ether Canadian cities on the Pacific, which have eclipsed almost everything . 'Fele kind m toe neighboring repub- _i'a The rapid growth, for example, of aileover city at the terminus of the C. It --sheaving; a population„ of about x4,OOO in the course of three or four years—exceeds anything in the history the republic; while other cities such ass Now Westminster, and victoria, B. tt,• have advanced by leaps and boun 1s rra • opulittion and in commercial pros- .er•ity since the opening up of our great .r,ost;a Western territory by means of dee transcontinental railway. If the Mabe: and other sheets of that stamp ere true friends to their country, they rccsild inform their readers of the fer- Wity of our North Western prairies;the ae1 brious climate of British Cdlumbi t,. the mineral wealth of Sudbury and Lao Superior districts, the immense minion fisheries of the Pacific Coast,the Ir anhaustible coal deposits on the Soiaxas and Saskatchewan rivers, and atie:almost illimitable fertile territory fleet awaits the arrival of immigrants tom the Mother Country and from . a'trope. But no! they would rather relate this magnificent country a "wild- eu'asss," aid keep before the eyes of Britielaers and Europeans the huge in. elatedness of Canada as a bugbear to. lighten intending emigrants, while in tie•s-a•Ine breath they profess to bewail «;ieh, crocodile tears the slow growth of .x•population as compared with. the tnited States, In a recent communi• oration t:icai to the London Times some rent- z1oh calling himself "a Canadian cor- sapondent" has thought fit to try duel plasm xl the° minds of British emigrants ray za wilfulmisrepresentation ofCanad- ian .i:ffalrs: insinuating that "hntntireds ,,1°ttousalnds of dollars of the -money in its;.edr" by'..English people in this e01.111- ere,. otal-o f have been squandered by the goy. ,+1.•:siment, and that Ottawa officials have +FIs iraffem,ing at the public expense, Reiff the :0:tame eorrespendent only re ilereed., to Quebec instes,d of Ottawa,and ;ll+tau huge "steal" of Mercier & Co. in 3.l eratter of the Bai,y Chaleurs subsidy •..;nerd would have been some justifica- Im for his depreciatory ternaries. 13ut taaat would not have served the plr- `ee.

In Loudon, Eng., the general topic of conversation among business men has been the extraordinary quick run made by the Canadian Pacific mail be- tween Yokohama and Liverpool. The whole d.stanee between Japan and Lon don was accomplished in less than 21 dace -thus breaking the record bar over ten days, as the postal guide gives 31 days for delivery of the'ivails in Lon.. 'don from China ante Japan. Whenit is remembered that the time table al- lows 43 days via the Sues Canal for transmission of the mails to England, the calnparisoli in favor of the Canadi- an iso our all route is calculated .to >.1 country in the estinlatiolt of business men with whom time is money. For aleft ry purposes, as well as for speedy postal despatch, the route along the C. P. R. will doubtless in fuiure be "con- sidered preferable. President Van. Horne has stated that what was done last week as an experimerit,'will here- after be done by the C. P R. Company as the rule. The London Times, re- markin.g on the quick rho just accom- plished, says it is -a feat "pregnant with important issues for the future of the Empire." Apropos to this subject, and also to the extensive harvest` yield' in our North West territory, it is worthy. of notice that during the last few days Canadian- etock has gone up in the money market, while. C. P. 1. stock continues to advance although it had risen above 90. This reminds us, by the way, of the great sacrifice 'which the Hob. Mr. Abbott has' made in ac- cepting the Premiership,when he gave orders to his agents in London to sell out his interest in C. P. R. stock. Had he not taken theoffice of Premier, end retained his stock in the railway, Mr. Abbott would today have been the gainer by $100,000. And yet with all these facts before the public, the Globe and other newspapers of that ilk would bespalter the government and malign the countrv. Sell faille's Sensation, Great surprise was e:,_used here Weinesday of last week when it be, came known that M. L. Messett, a 72 - year -old resident of this town, who has been e widower for Duly e few weeks, had'heen arrested for abduetiou. His preliminary trial before Mr. John Beat tie, magistrate, brought out the fact that he had induced Catharine Kenne dy, a girl aged 12 years, to elope with. him and proceed to Exeter, where, tie coi'dfwgto the girl's story, as told in court, they were to have been mar vied. 'i'ho couple, he-Weyer' did not reach their destination, for the girl's mother gut wind of the aliatr and the. couple were arrested at .Clinton, the girl having been attired in a travel ing outfit by the aged lover. , Mr W. 0. Smith, barrister, of this town, defended Messett at the trial, but as the evidence submitted was clear end conclusive the magistrate committed the prisoner for trial; and h; was taken to Goderleh jail. SANATE COMMITTEE'S REPORT' We have neither time nor space for the Senate Committee's I eport on the Bay Chaleurs scandal. But in substance it finds the Quebec Premier, tied Pa.caud and his associates, guilty all along the line. The report charges that Arm- strong was not entitled to a cent of the $175,000 that Pecaud received out of that sum. $100,000, part of which went to pay Premier Mercier's private: debts that the balance was given to Pacaaud and his Confreres, who received tine money illegally to the robbery of the Bay Chaleurs Railway—and that ' Mr. F. Langelier has failed to establish his charges of embezzlement against the Hon, Mr..It:obitaille. Such is the sub- stance of the draft report submitted by the Sena te's Committee Of investigation and although it consists of a simple narration of facts sworn to under oath, nothing could be more condemeatory as an exposure of the extensive "hood ling" carried on by Mercier's gang for political purposes.
