The annual report of Sir Charles Tup-
per, High Commissioner to England,
has been issued. It shows that the
emigration from Great Britainnto Canada
lasty ear was 31,930, as compared with
38,036 in the wine period in 1889. Sir
Charles says that in oder to attract;
attention to the country money must be

upon in the organ's columns. Coupled
with this tare vague hints of the crushing

have upon our farmers. . next year, and
of how easily the Dominion could be
crippled commercially by the United
States Government withdrawing bond-

is the organ's abject in all this? Simply

"The majorities given for the Govern.

The Globe of' Friday, March 27th
contains the following :
"Reports received state that half a mil-
lion of seed wheat is needed by destitute
farriers in Dakota this spring. and, as the
counties have reached their debtlimit, and
the State Legislature has refused to supply
seed. 50,000 farms will remain uncultivat-
ed this season. On the whole the condi-
tion of affairs there is deplorable, and
settlements are being entirely abandoned
in some parts. Emigrants are driving
into Manitoba every day. and shipping
their stock and effects at pointe on the
C. P. R. Southwestern for their destine,
tion A general movement is expected
about the middle of next month. Cana-
dian agents will hold the fort in suite of
threats of ill treatment. The more they
. are molested the more widely will their
mission he advertised. C. P. R land de.
partment statistics show that the immigra
tion to this country during February was
75 per cent larger than last year. The
company's ]and sales for the same month
were 60 per cent larger than in the corres-
ponding period last year."
In the same issue the Globe, editor-
ially, states that Canada will very soon
go to ruin unless we get annexation to
this market of 65,000. This much laud-
ed market seems to have a bad effect on
the Dakotans. .

The work of taking the census is all

day of April next.
The enumerators have all been appoint-

The Department of Agriculture expect
this census to he very complete and accur-
ate. They wish to ascertain, in addition
to the number of the population, their
classification as regard sex, age, (the ladies
are expected to be very, very truthful in
this partieular under the penalty of a heavy
hue) social connection, religion, education

wish to eseertein the number of houses,
material composed of, size, whether uihab
Red or uninhabited, and whether complet-
ed or in course of construction.
The census is not taken, as many sup
pose e' roneously. for the purpose of tax-
at"on, and no one but the enumerator and
the census oflieers at Ottawa will see the
particulars that niay be gather ed.
Heads of famalies are compelled to an-
swer all questions asked by the enumera-
tors.
In order to facilitate the worn of the
enumerators, in view of the feet that thei'
visits will in all probability he made its the
lay time when the heads of families are
absent from home, i' would be well for the
ladies to familiarize themselves with such
sui.jects connected with their househo rl
atl'aiss as are to be enquired into by the
enumerators, as, far example, the amount
of land occupied, the amount of produe-•
tions, etc., ete.
All residents must state the total
amount of land they own, iii whatever part
or parts of Canada it may be situated, but
no value need he stated,

Fire Protection.
To the business men of Exeter, and all
others interested in the welfare of the
Village.
OENTLENEN,-Being considerably inter-
ested in our village,not perhaps financially,
but as a resident. and one who may be
financially interested, I take the liberty
of addressing you on a subject of great im-
portance, not only to yourselves, but to
all persons who regret to see their fellow
men ruined and in poverty, viz: "Fire
Protection."
You all know what n narrow escape we
had a week or two ago, and we know that
our present apology for a fire proteetion is
a disgrace to any decent town. We know
from late experience that our engine and
brigade can't put out a woodshed, or in
any way protect the people who have been
supporting them for years. We know
that our village is running a great risk
every day, and still we practically do
nothing towards its security. And why?
Simply because we haven't the sense to
make a move, nor the decency and honesty
to untie those two well -tied money bags.
We prefer to endure anxiety and run the
risk of ruin, rather than ran the risk of
increasing the taxes. In fact we don't
make inquires as to whether we can't ob-
tain better security without this awful
wrench from our pockets No 1 we prefer
to turn pale and run to our shops in agony,
for remember its a case of "my shop first"
with all of us, no matter what loss our
neighbor may have -les him fis and scorch
until I see I'm alright. Is this the way to
live, is this the way to act, in this state
of horrible, dread everytime the bell dings?
Gentlemen, I have taken the liberty of
making some enquires, and the following
is the resent, viz : That we could put in
a system of good fire protection (if my in-
formation be correct) for less than $15 000;
but say even 820,000, that taking our
present total insurance at $150,000, at an
average rate of le % which is the rate on
stores, we could reduce our insuranc-
premiums to such an amount that we
would save sufficient to pay the interest
on the $15,000, or $20,000 -the cost of the
water system, and even more. We would
reduce our class of insurance frotn "E" to
"C," or from "F" to "C " F being really
our present class, or at least should be ;
but I understand we get a reduction of
le % for our present syetem, which from
past experience of it is an. imposition on
the Insurance Companies, and I doubt if
the town would not be liable. or et least
would have been liable in case of large
damage for the negligent state of affairs at
the late R'd Pickard fire. Oh wasn't
that a speeirnen of our brigades' utility 1
Mi P. must have been glad he had paid
towards our tanks, engine, etc.; ,he must
have felt proud of his village ; he must
have felt proud of himself, and his friends,
the business men, who allowed such a
glowing picture to be made at his expense.
What would the Insurance Companies
have thought had his residence goue too ?
Would we $et the a per cent off our prem-
iums then ?
People say we can't carry a by law,,
"the retired farmers won't support it."
Are the owners of the front street to be at
the mercy of those on the back? Retired
farmers, do you with to be a curse to your
own town, and to every one it it ?
How can we expect manufactories to
start here, when their insurance premiums
would be enormous, and their build-
ings at the mercy of every spark
that blows ? What inducements
have we? Every stranger remarks
"What an awful state you people live iu"
"why don't you get better protection ?"
The same old answers come every time :
"They won't pay forit"
'Too o man

was stopped from advocating a better sys-
tem by his co council or remarking 'Don't
mention fire. we're euro to have one then";
and so the matter dropped, and so di 1 he.
Hoping I've offended none. as t he story
goes. and that the seed won't all fall on
stony ground, and rensinding you that we

Alp of Stephen. It appears that the coun-
cil have no power to renew a portion of the
present debt without the consent of tee
electors of the township of Stephen or by
having the government pass a special not,
and therefore they have decided upon the
latter course , which they consider the most
expedient. The council are to be congrat-
ulated upon their goal financial position as
we understand that they aro only asking
the government to grant power to issue
Debentures for the sum of $12,000. The
present debt on the township is $97.500
which will all mature during thia year, and
the couueil will have fauds to (mist in
wiping, out'$15,500. This must certainly
be considered good work. Some years ago
when H Eilber drat proposed this sinking
feud, he made a number of difforeut calcul.
ations and promised the rate pas ors that by
holding the municipal rate at the same as
it had been for years, the council woald
wipe out the debt it they would pay direct-
ly for that purpose $12,000. This was con
aidered impossible ny alarge number of the
rate payers, but never the lees tho matter
was commenced and the sinking fund was
levied and invested annually ou 1st mort-
gages. .And it has been a surprise to all
how it was worked. The ammunt levied
direct up to Jan 1st 1891 for sinking
fund is $5.433•,48
Interest accrued, 1,636,44
Townehip oounoil have appropri-
ated Lom general funds, 4,067,56
making a total of 11 137,48
To this cum was to be added the portion
whioh Exeter agreed to pay the township of
Stephen viz : $1,617,64
Sinking fund of 1891, 900.00
Interest accrued when debenture
become due, 200,00
The council promi-o to appropri-
ate Tp. funds during tho year, 1,644.88
Making a total of 15,500,00
And this will then only leave a bal of
?12,000 to pay. This the council purpose
to pay off in 6 years by raising a sinking
fund of 11900 annually, and seeping the
present Tp. taxes where they are. If this
et carried out by future councils, in 6 years
the debt will be paid and the township will
be for once free of debt, and in this manner
the council have only asked the people to
pay directly for a sinking fund about $11700.
It is remarkable ho., money worse, and Mr
Eilber deserves the thanks of the ratepay-
ers of the township for the interest he has
taken in this matter.
