Everybody is surprised with the result o: the late elections- Mr. Mowat, according to his friends, is stronger in the Legislature thau ever, and tree further. «s>:ert that his policy has been overwhelmingly endorsed by the people. We deny bods of these statements.

He did not, how- ever, do this, but he wrote some- thing that was used on every plat- form as a sheild and an apology for Mr. Mowat. We say boldly that any fair-minded man who will read Mr. Meredith's resolution in the House in favor of Civil Rights as against the pretensions of the heir- archy, and his recent speeches, wherein he disputed and denied the claims of Archbishop Lynch and Du1i,i.ii1 as to the church being above the state, and also his corres- pore:er,ce with Archbishop Cleary, the outcome of which was a treat of eternal damnation to every Leman Cathour citizen who dared to c:•.crcise the cavil Tights conferred on him by the state as his con• science dictated and not as his bishop ordered him, and who will still further read the lame and im- potent apology of Mr. Mowat him- self, that he had made no undue concessions to the Roinan Catholics, must come to the conclusion that Mr. Meredith was entitled to the votes and influence of the Equal Righters. And now that the elec- tion is over, such . a fair minded man would have been more than confirmed in such a conclusion when he learned that the Catholic vote did "go solid" for Mr, Mowat and did "knife" Mr. Meredith. If Principal Caven denies the presence of any political fetichism in him, then we say he wrote such letters atter the publication of the manifesto of the Equal Righters that appealed effectively to the political fetichism in the great built of Reformers, many of whom had been.led to believe from the noise made by the Equal Righters .that something was wrong and that "concessions" had been made. In refusing to take a rside the Equal Righters acted the part of political cranks. They can never do anything by blind manifestoes. They must have tactics and leader- ship, acid if the enemy they are fighting goes one way, is it not their true tactics to make a move in the opposite direction ? In the late election, Principal Caven play- ed the game of the heirarchy with all his strength a and joined them in supporting Mowat and joined them in stabbing Meredith, who denied their pretensions. If the Equal Righters (and we have great respect for them and their objects) do not show better generalship hereafter, their useful- ness is gone ---they are mere count- ers in the hands of the politicians —and their only result will be to stir up the ill feeling of creeds with- out allaying the evils that they set out to remove.—Toronto World. EDITUR.U., NO".t'ES,. MR. Gladstone now denies that he stated the affair at Mitchellstown and the Siberian atrocities were ar l el outrages, n p a l u ages He only spoke of them together as it were, and the people misconcei\'ecd the fide distinctions of his utterances. Mr. Gladstone seems to he ag ood deal like other politicians in his meth- ods of getting out of a tight corner. her colonies, and to thisindiffer- ence may be attributed the dilators• ness of which Mr. Stanley com- plains. More recently, however, there has been an awakening to a truer conception of British rights and duties, and the words of the great explorer will no doubt induce greater activity and the adoption of a more energetic colonial policy on the part of the British Government with reference to Africa. A iu visED statement reduces the wheat area in Manitoba to Boo, -000 acres. However. it is large for the farming population of a province of only I50,uc0 people, and helps to show how touch a good harvest will add to the individual wealth. The prospects so far, are all for a good harvest, and the people are. talking of a repetition of the phenomenal crop of 1887. That they may have it is a patriotic pray- er that many "i11 echo. It has al- ways to be remembered, though, and recent crops experience through out Canada serves to further em- phasize the fact, that the sure time to count chickets is after they are hatched. • THERE are now forty-two states in the United States, with a repre- sentation of eighty -fol r Senators and three hundred and thirty mem- bars of Congress. The new state of Idaho will add two more Sena- tors and Congressman, should the act admitting it not be set aside by the Supreme Court. The grand object of constituting the five new states was to increase crease Republican representation in the next Congress, as all of them are expected to elect representatives belonging to the party. It is expected that in the corning contest party spirit will run higher than ever before, which is saying a great deal. The un- scrupulousness of the present Ad- ministration has intensified the bit- terness of partizanship, and both parties appear to stop at nothing. A RECENT writer describes the Indians of the Canadian Western territories as a lot of idle, lazy vag- abonds, rapidly dying of starvation and bad habits. Beggars and tramps, what"pride they had, what courage was once theirs, what ro- mance and prosperity or comfort flavored their lives, has all gone The same writer credits their "best friend in Canada' with the prophecy that, at the present death -rate, there will not be a full•blooded Indian left on the plains in fifteen years. This picture, though darkly shaded, is not far from the truth. The Indians of the plains appear even less fitted to meet the new conditions caused by the advent of the white man than the tribes of the east. All that devoted mis- sionaries could do, and all the efforts of our Government have failed to make them cultivators of the soil. They readily imitate the worst vices of white men, but seem incapable of imitating their virtues. ACCORDING to published railway statisticstwenty brakemen are killed every day in the year on an aver- age in the United States. It is, therefore, not astonishing that the class from whose ranks this awful tribute is taken by the Juggernaunt ot modern civilization should peti- tion to have the railway companies compelled to adopt the most ap- proved appliances for coupling cars. It is astonishing that men should take employment where they have only one chance in five of dying a natural death. The cost of putting perfectly safe self-acting couplers on cars would cost from $25 to $4.0 per car. To save this expense twenty men die an agon- izing death every day. Some com- panies to their credit have adopted the new system and the brakemen of America are moving for legisla tion to compel all companies to de likewise. Justice and humanity are on their side and they ought to succeed, HENRY M. Stanley has been tell - big the Government and the people of Great Britain some very plain truths. With the directness of a man who is sure of his ground and knows whereof he speaks, he has pointed out how golden opportuni- ties have been lost by the English m Africa. As a matter of tact, it seems that Englishmen have not fully realized the aims of German policy in the dark continent. The Germans are an emigrating people and their Government has conceiv- ed the idea that instead ot allowing their people to go to the building up of the United States they should be turned into colonies of their own, Africa being the only part of the world open to ctalonrzation, and eastern Africa being the best part of it for Europeans, thither the Ger. man Government directed its en- ergies on this new path of national enterprise. England of later years had grown somewhat indifferent to NEWS NOTES. Huron, S.D„June G,—Zack T.

Billy Parks, of Glencoe, has been communicating with the American Gov eminent for some time, and as a result, expects in a few weeks to receive a pen- sion of about $3,000. St. Paul, Minn., Time G.—A special from Sioux Falls says that no one was killed in the Bliss schoolhouse yester- day. Fifteen children were rendered unconscious by a stroke of lightning, but have since recovered. The melon crop of Georgia began to move about 6, and between June 15 and June 20 the fruit will be going freely to Northern and Western markets. The The crop is roughly estimated at 12,000 cars, or 4,000 in excess of the crop of last year. On Wednesday night last the stables of Peter McDermaid, one mile north of Pickering, were struck by lightning. Most of the contents were got out, and all the stock, except one valuable mare, which perished in the flames. The loss was partially covered by insurance. Kittie M. Frederick, a good-looking girl, 20 years old, was locked up on June 7th at Coldwater, Mich., charged with trying to wreck a train on the Michigan Central Railroad by placing ties on the track. She admits that she and another girl placed two ties on the track and saw the engine of a freight train push them off, but says they did it for fun, and not through malice. The Ontario drill camps have been located as follows : District No. 1, at Stratford ; No. 2, at Niagara, and districts 3 and 4 united, at Kingston.

Guelph, June 6. -The passenger train due here from the north at 4 o'clock, under the conductorship of William Sni- der, ran over a man at the gravel pit crossing. about five miles north of the city on the W., G. & B. division on the G. T. R. The engineer saw the man walking on the track and `blew the whistle, and seeing that took' no notice of the alarm reversed his engine. The cowcatcher struck the man on the right leg, crushing it badly near the thigh,and also inflicted injuries on the head. The man was brought on the train to. Guelph, placed in a' hotel and medical aid pro cured. He died in a short time. The papers in his possession gave no clue to his identity, but after careful inquiry it was fount] (hat he was a well-to-do man, residing in Ponsonby, named Maitland. He iQ�about 50 years of age.
