This the part of the Indian move on Govereunen t has conic unexpectedly, but it goea to show that the sem of the people is in the right direction. It will have the Whet of forcing silver legislation in the United States, and the free coinage proposition there will seem too absurd to get even a hearing.

Force, who recently re - -- turned from Chicago where he was Judge of the butter exhibits in the Columbia Exposition, informs Us that of the 800 exhibits, but 40 were fora Canada. Butter is the great hobby of the dairymen of the United Statea, and in recent years they have been vastly increasing their make, while Canadians have neglected this product, in favor of cheese -making. As 14 of the 40 Canad- ian exhibits were awarded medals, it has been demonstrated thee it is not because Canadian cows do not give the proper kind of milk to make good but- ter, or because Canadian dairymen can- not, if they choose, market the product in first,class shape, that this country does not very larvely increase its butter output The exhibits from Canada at Chicago were decidedly superior, and we are confident could have been largely •added to. What the farmers of Ontario at all events, now require is a fair trial of the creamery system. By itsgeneral introduction and careful management the butter production of this country could be vastly improved and inoreaaed to the decided advantage of the com- munity. aus...“••••••6 Somewhat Slow. Carada on the whole has not done so badly on the cheese at Chicago, as the following will show, but Ontario has not done what she could have done. Thetotal number of exhibits was 667. Of these Canada had 162. Out of the whole 667, 135 were entitled to medals or diploma's, and Canada took 126 out of the 135Another strong point for Canada is 31 of her cheese exhibits scored higher than any in the United States. sees -- Out of the exhibits in cheese that won medals 69 went to Ontario, 52 to Quebec one to .New Brunswick, two to Nova Scotia and 2 to Prince Edward's Island. But the cheese make of 1893, 20 lots from Quebec won as against only one from Ontario. That is, if it had not been for last September's make Ontario would not haye been in the exhibit at all. Wehaye got as finecheeae as any in the world, but this year's make was not sent forward. • • In butter Canada has done very well, as out of 800 packages on exhibition she has 40 which won 14 medals out of 275 whieh have been awarded, whichis a much higher ratio than the Americans won, ancievee a much higher ratio than Canada won in the eheese. The points f or butter are;—Flavor, 45; grain, 25; color, 15; salting, 10; packing, 5; and no butter gots medal that did. not score 97 points out of the hundred; so a very high atandard of judging was adopted It is to be hoped that Ontaxio will push forward with her cheese from this out andbe in time for the Sept, judte Inge. Exhibitors need not be afraid, for it must be a poor oheese that will not score 90 pointsoub of the 100 points. This purl of On tario has been •very slow in sending forward their butter and cheese exhibits to Chicago, to compete in the great contest at, the World's Fair. In fact not this part of Ontario alone, but the whole proyinee • is behind as compared with the Quebec Exhibit of fter all the talk we have heard re- garding the intentions of the reform party to pursue A policy of free trade should they attaia power, inteiligent consideration of the whole subjeet must in the end oryfitallize itself into the following simple question:—To what ex- tent can any government give free trade to Canada? The country must be governed. It cannot be done without money, as some people appear to imagine. The total amount the government cost laat year was $36,343, 668. The total receipts were $38,579,- 311, of which $3,885,744 was the air - plus :revenue; of the previous year, carried. forward for the maintenance of government in 1891. The aurplua at the end of 1891 waa $2,335,743, on $1,- 650,151 less than. the amount they had on hand at the beginning of the year, as just stated. It is clear therefore that had they collected all the revenue re- quired for 1891 in that year, they would not have had enough money. Hence the question becomes one of revenue—the necessities of the country must be the first thing to be settled, and theories and principles must be made to equere with such necessities.Reachingthis point Liberals say the country is governed extravagantly and that if they were in power they would redueel.the expendi- ture. The statement is intelligible and distinct. Let us carefully examine the conditions whioli prevail and ascertain if they will permit any reductions, We pay SO cents per head. of its population th each of the provinces—$3,036,757;in- terest on public debt, $9,584,137; sink- ing fund to redeem debt, $1,938,078; other charges in connection with the debt, $262,068—making a total of $16.- 688,040 which no govermnent could avoid paying. Deducting this unavoid • able expenditure from the total cost of keeping up the country, $36,343,368, we have $19,655,528 left. With that sum the lifihira which are exclusively Dominion must be managed. Any re- ductions which are made must came out of that aum. What reductions are possible? We hear it said that the • Liberals would repeal the franchise At for one thing. We never heard of any party which, getting into power, threw away any advitntage that they found ready to hand, and if the franchise act could be utilized to preserve power for the liberals, we suspect that they would merely make some alterations and con- tinue the Act, in what they might call an atnended shape. However, the ex- penditure on the Act last year was but $3,000, so that there would he little to save in that item. It is mueli easier td proraiae than to make retrenchment in government expenditure. In 1872 the liberal party told the people the same thing that they tell them to -day, name- ly, that the expenditure was too high and would be reduced by them. That was their promise. Here is how they were able to keep it. Expenditure 1873, $19,174,047; 1874, $23,316,316: 1875; $23,713,071; 1876 $24,488,372. Yet in all the years they were in power the receipts were'leis than the expenditures. This conclusion is irresistible while free trade is in the abstract a good principle it cannot be applied in Canada without bankruptcy or direct taxation resulting. The Liberal intentions may be all right, but they cannot perform as they pro- mise. A wonderful new combination Is R.

The Main body of the building was 5 stories high,, In the centre of this rose the sinokestack in the shape via cupola, to the top of which was almost 200 feet. 'rhe hese of this cmpela was about 30 feet square. About 80 feet front the base of this cupola there was a balcony, from which another square tower rose, oulminating in the mouth of the smoke staok where the fire was discovered. The interior of this tower and around the smoke stack were wooden beams and framework on which the, staff covering was laid. It was at the top of this cupola that the fire was discovered.

Ab first it appeared to he en insignifi- cant affair, but knowing the inflanunable nature of the structure Fire ?darsha Nec. phy. who bad ebarge of the fire depart-• ment on the ground, sent in a call for all comoanies to turn out. With about 40 af his men he climbed the stationary ladders inside the tower to the balcony and from there ropes were lowered to haul up the hose. Only one hose, that of a, chemical engine, had been hauled up, when a gest of wind caused the flames to break out in an alarm- ing mautter about 10 feet from the top of the cupola. Meantime the fire had eaten its way down through the network of tim- bers inside the structure, and uneouscious of their danger the firemen were standing as it were on the shell of burning volcano. Not one of the tens of thou- sands of interested spectators who had gathered from all parts of tire grounds had any intimation of the perilous position in whieh the firemen were then standing. The fire had been burning scarcely 20 minutes and the firemen were pulling and hauling at the ropes, when suddenly the flames burst out around the base of the cupola in a -perfect heil.
