Turning a deaf ear to the cry of the people tor a change in its trade policy with foreign coun- tries, the Government nailed its free trade .colors to the mast, and deter- mined, to inkpwith the ship. The , Conservative party t(promised the people a N atioi,ai. Policy of protect- ,oi., to ,our home industries. There sever 'was.a more unequivocal issue before .an ,electorate. The people knew what:they were doing and vot- edtor Protection. In 1587 the people were again ap pealed to, and the issue was pract- ically the :same. The ,principle of Pr tection to home intiue.try was again affirmed with emphasis, its beneficial efi:t cts upon the country being now clearly seen. In 1887, the opponents of a prot- tective policy imported ,a ,new ele- ment into the electoral struggle.- Desparing of success on a sq'a.are is- sue between free trade and protect- ion, they seized upon the execution of the Rebel Riel as, in their ,opin- ion, calculated to alienate a large portion of the supporters of the -Gov- ernment in the province of Quebec. More dangerous and unjustifiable tactics were never resorted to at an election. They failed, however. But an unexpected result followed —the complete demoralization of the Grit party. Its leader withdrew fin disgust, an event which was fol- Io�aei by quarrel' -s, insubordination and jealousies among the rank and file of the representative men of the party. Under these circumstances a council was held. All agreed that some new battle cry had to be in- vented. The • old o, es were dead issues. The National Policy was too deeply seated in the hearts of the people to be up -rooted by a free bade cry. Besides the Malvern speech had cut the grounds irom un der them: The Riel question, from which so much had been expected, had turned out a curse to the party. The C. P. R. had been finished, and nothing remained !or the party, if it was to continue an exponent of poli tical principles, but to construct a new platform. Commercial Union was then agreed on, and means tak- en to put the issue cunningly to the people as if the movement were a spontaneous one among the fanners of both political parties all over the country. . Upon the Commercial Union wave the party was to be wafted into power at the next elect- ion. If that failed, ]nothing was left but to d;sband. This is the true history of the Commercial Union agitation. Its origon was Grit; its chief advocates are Grits; its ultimate object and only aim is to put the Grits into Dower at the next election.

EDITORIAL NOTES. -- THE Reform journals did give t+.le result of the Renfrew election con- test a passing notice. The tone of the paragraphs is indicative of coming from disheartened persons. At a political meeting held at Somerset, Quebec, Wednesday, July 3rd, the Hon. W. Laurier de- fined his views sn Commercial Un- ion. He said: "The Liberal party, while strongly in favor of a reciprocity treaty with the Un- ited States, are opposed to the scheme of commercial union until more definite in- formation has been gathered as to the probable result of such a radical change n1 the fiscal policies of the two countries." It is evident that the leader of the Opposition does not for the present, at. least favor the Scheme of Com- mercial Union, MANY professed friends of beauti- ful Miss Canada are urging her to use every means in her power to in -s duce Uncle Sam morganatically to) wed with her in the hands of Come Inercial Union. But supposing the. calculatin' old chap should ungall- antly decline her unmaidenly advan•' nes; and in sooth he has not shown himself as being much disposed thus to take her; what chagrin and deep humiliation must be the lot ofi poor Miss Canada! Spare her the sad fates of a rejected suitress!
