THE EXPOSITOR AS A TORY OR-
GAN.
The Herron Expositor of last week
contains a column and a half of the
most peculiar editorial we ever read.
In commenting on Sir John Macdonald's
speech at Sherbrooke, Que., a short
tiTne since, it says that its own words
that "annexation sentiment was largely
increasing in Canada," was fully veri-
fied: by Sir John's speech. And then it
proceeds to prove that annexation is
gettiug popular, because Sir John spoke
most emphatically against it. That, of
course, in the eyes of our totem., proves
its popularity. The Expositor says that
Sir John Macdonald knows that annex-
ation is becoming popular, and that is
why he stated it was unpopular, and a
mere fad. The Expositor emphatically
states that Sir John did not believe a
word he said, and that when he railed
against annexation and unrestricted
Reciprocity and spoke in favor of Can-
ada and Canada's national .,policy, he
meant exactly the reverse of what he
said. Our able contemporary makes
all this out by the process that it styles:
"reading between the lines." We
always, in our simplicity, imagined that
public men were to be judged by their
public utterances, but our enlightened
neighbor has let us into a new dodge.
And that is, that when a public man
makes a speoch, one is to take the ex-
act reverse of what he says as his mean-
ing and deal with hila accordingly.
Our confrere should locate in some
American town. He has grown ton
smart for the slow ieteileet of Can-
ethans. Then the Expositor states that
the annexation feeling "strongly taints
Sir John's own following," and in the
most consistent way in theworld strong-
ly urges "that following" to "speak up"
to the "olcl Ulan" and let him know
What theirtheir�'I.ews.' �, ., eat :;its Colne over our
once esteemed totem? It did not. of
old voice such arrant nonsense, and
such inconsistent— we were going to
say "rot"! Pray, what evidence does
the s xpeeitor find that Conservatives'
ate largely tainted with annexation
sentiments? It gives no evidence. No
Conservative journal advocates it ; no
Conservative public man proclaims in
its favor, but father loudly denounces
it ; no one of the rank and file of Con-
servatives -but flatly disown it. This is
about equal to Sir John's speech—be-
cause all Conservatives assert them-
selves against annexation, the Exposi-
tor therefore finds that they are "lento-
ly for it." When or by what process
did the Expositor imbibe such absurd
and extraordinary ideas? And when
did the Expositor obtain the right to
step into Conservative ranks and ad-
vise "independent Conservatives, of
which there are many," as to what
course they should pursue.
We wish to inform the Expositor and
any of its erring friends that Sir John
Macdonald and his "following" of "in-
dependent Conservatives" are all right.
They will lay down their own policy,
pursue their own course, give their own
advice and will be judged by what they
say and do, and not by the reverse of
what they say and do, If our neigh-
bor had taken the thought to read Sir
John's speech before commenting on it,
he would have seen that Sir John was
practically speaking to the Yankees,
amongst whom there is an annexation
sentiment, proving to them that their
bluster, coaxing, retaliation, annexa-
tion bills (4sc., &;e , were all in vain ;
that Canada diel not want annexation
and would not have it. That was Sir
John's platform, the platform of the
Conservative party ;and we honestly
believe of also eight -tenths of the
Liberal party, of Canada. That we do
not want annexation, did not require to
be proved to a Canadian audience.
Everybody is aware of the fact. But
certain Yankee politicians still persist
that we do want it, no matterhow much
wve protest to the contrarge And to
those politicians Sir Jultif*k.e.
This annexation is40ong-bear.
Ninety-seven out of " 'emy 'hundred
Canadians do not want; it, ,a d' ' 111 not
have it. The Expositbi�ilmtt l�aware
of that fact. Then e i:4It'S. elnseless
trash 1 Let the Exposmt(;ii)'stlyy'in Re-
form ranks and give advice' en that side
of the line. Sir John and the Cor.serva-
tive party will get along nicely without
ite' sanction or advice.
Bob Ingersoll °nee said that all Dem-
ocrats were not horse -thieves, but all
horse -thieves were Democrats, So
with annexationists. There are not
many in this country. The Reformers
are not all annexationists, but all an-
nexationists are Reformers, Or as the
Expositor more graphically nuts it :
they are "tlisgruntledGrits."
Let the Expositor go in for annexa-
tion if it wants to, We tender it no
advice in the matter. But if it wants
to be read in the future by any intelli-
gent person, we advise it to quit "read-
ing between the lines,"
"Il,ead:ng between the lines" and
tun2ee have gone conlmection We
were our nnip'hbor of that; fiat. M

THE BRITISH WHEAT CROP:
Sir John Lawes, of Rott?iatusted, has
prepared his usual estimate of the
wheat crop of the year, Taking the
average population of the United King-
dom for the harvest year 1888.9 at
rather over 37,771,175, the estimated
requirement for consumption, 5.65 bus-
hels per head, would be about 26,075,
892 quarters. The area under wheat is
reported to have been 2,603,430 acres,
or nearly 300,000 acres more than last
year. The area, at 26i. bus per acre,
would yield nearly 8,847,480 quarters;
and, deducting two bushels per acre for
seed, there would remain rather over
8,281,621 qaurters available for con-
sumption; and there would, accordingly
be required about 18,394,271 quarters
to be provided from the stocks and im-
ports. "It is admitted," the report
says, " that the wheat crop, not only of
America, but of some other countries
whence we derive supplies, will be be-
low the average. But during the last
two months of the past harvest year our
imports were at the rate of about 21,
000,000 quarters per annum; whilst with
our late harvest and the rise in prices,
the supplies have been very liberal since
and there seems no reason to fear that
there will be any difficulty in obtaining
sufficient supplies to meet such require-
ments as the foregoing estimates show
to be probable."
EDITORIAL NOTES.
Crux. J. A. BumxoNT, of the U. S.
Steamboat Inspection Service, reports
that during the fiscal year ended June
30, the total number of accidents re-
sulting m loss of life was 36, causing
the death. of 202 persons, or IS less
than during the previous year. Of the
killed 85 were passengers and 117 em-
ployes. The loss of life is less than the
average annual loss for the decade
terminated with the year.
The Boston Globe states the case
thus:—Tho statement that the engage-
ment of Miss Mary Endicott to lion.
Joseph Chembet•lain is gratifying to Mr
a nd Mrs. Endicott is by no means true.
Miss Endicott is 25, her future husband
52. Moreover he has been ;carried
twice before and has six children, the
eldest, a daughter, being 24 years old.
These considerations, together with the
fact that Mr. Chamberlain will take his
bride to England, make the match by
no means agreeable to the Endicott
fern fly
The English Board of Trade returns
show an improved Canadian trade. The
exports to Canada during October ex-
panded £85,540, equal to 25i per cent.
over October, 1887. The ten months
show a decrease of 9 per cent. The
expansion covers horses, spirits manu-
factures and iron. Imports from Can-
ada decreased £91,107, equal to 8r per
cent. for the month and 13 for the ten
months. This is chiefly due to the de-
crease of £101,478 in wheat arrivals
during the month, arising from the late-
ness of the Canadian harvest FIour
increased £21,760; cheese £27,921; but-
ter decreased £29,431.
"The following brief experience related
by Mr. Wm. Harper, of 8, 18, a farmer
much respected by all who know him, is
but one of many that could be related.
For thirteen years he worked hard, early
and late, in the county of Bruce, Ontario.
He cleared the forest, blasted the stumps,
broke up the land, and at the end of that
time, with a. hard struggle, had done
fairly well, well in comparison to most of
bis neighbors. He removed to Manitoba
three years ago, an I settled upon his
present farm. In two years Mr. Harper
says he has done well, and has made as
much money as he did during his thirteen
years in Bruce- Mr. Harper gave us the
figure3 as proof, but as they were given
without any idea that they would be
published, we withold them. Over his
own signature we expect he will give us
the.pleasure of producing them." --Brandon
Sun.
The above is not in keeping with
editorial natter we have noticed in our
eotem. Contrary to bewailing state-
ments as to the farmer being down-
trodden, and ill-used at the hands of
the Dominion Government, and starving
we find he is getting rich, always happy
and has very little work incident to pi-
oneer life, to perform ; in fact he is as
well oft', generally, as most Outerio farm
ers and moreso than many of them. We
assume that the farmers are all right,
but the Sun wants the earth encircled
by a stone wall.
IT was predicted that if Harrison was
elected President, Canada would haye
considerable trouble in arriving at a
settlement of the fishery question.
Since the election many leading papers
on the Republican. side, have given ex-
pression to very moderate views on the
matter, and the probabilities are that
we shall be able to negotiate with the
incoming administration fully as well,
if not better, than vs wouldl have done
with the Democrats. The Boston
Herald says:—
"Another problem that will need to he
met and adjusted is international in its
character, consisting in the settlement of
the fisheries dispute; and here again one
may predict with confidence that the Be
publican Administration ar:d the P,<, ttbli-
can majority in the Son•tto will show ver,
antra les.i of the lit?;i;;eront spirit than
was exhibited a i'tirr nla:rdts alio
