THE NE; rV ADMIN IS ('RA T101 Our readers are pretty well a cf the changes that have bfen 11 an the administration since the ac son of Sir Joh S. D, Thompson, Ii M. G., to the Premiership of Cana While a few "transfers ;of office have ken i, 1. .l place, for reasons will c mend themselves to the general p lie, new blood has been infused, into administration by the selection 'ofH Messrs. Wallace, Wood, Ives, and C ran • Such is the public estimation those gentlemen that they have, been elected to represent their sEve oristitlicncies by acclamation. T1 politica) opponents have not yentui risk an election by bringing out candidate in the interest of the Lib al party. Thio one fact speaks unties as to the wisdom and foresight the new Premier, and may be rega ed as a' marked proof of his great p ularity. Considerable capital has b sought to be made by opposition jo nals of the ground of the new Pre ier's religious belief. All things bei equal, it is quite natnral that Prot tants should prefer one of their o co religionists as leader of the admin tration-especially in a country 11 this, where the great majority of t ,people are Protestants in faith,. B where, as in .the present instance, t gentleman called to fill the responsib position of Premier, is head and shou tiers above his compeers in legal kno Sedge, constitutional love, and admirals trative ability, -coupled with unex• ceptiouai purity of life and impartiality in the'; management of public affairs,— there is no reason whatever why a auan's religious belief should operate as a bar to his political or social ad •vaucement. As the Hon. N. Cfarke Wallace, the new Controller of Cus- toms, properly observed in his speech before the constituents of West York. "Neither in the British North American Act nor in any Statute passed since is there any disability because a man is a. Roman Catholic." It is quite refresh- ing to find a gentleman occupying the highest position of, honor in the gift of loyal Orange Association on this Con- tinent or in the world, one who has been an Orangeman' in high standing for quarter of a century, justifying his acceptance of office under a Ro man Catholic Premier on the ground of his obligation as an orangeman. M:• Clarke Wallace took occasion to quote publicly before his constituents one of the articles of the Orange As sociation, in the defence of his position as a member of the Thompson admin- istration, which reads as follows:“Disolitim an " nt,ionder elide stanindispens bleet-it. the elif et,. tion, without which the greatest and wealthiest ma,y seek admission in vain, that, the candidate s11ztlI be deemed incap- able of persecute or injuring any one on ac- count of his religious opinions, the duty of every Orangem an being, to aidcrmd defend all loyal subject so ever}I repeious persuasion in the enjoyment of Mar constitutional lights. Whatever views may be entertained in regard to'the expediency or de- sirablity of selecting a Premier whose reilgious opinions are opposed to the great body of the people in this 'Cana- da of ours", Sir John Thompson is by common consent possessed of superior gaalifitcations fitting him for the office of Premier. And Certainly he has, in the selection of the members of his cabinet, evinced a fairness and impar- tiality which entities him to the calm and disinterested judgement of the people of Canada. Three of the four new members of the administra- tion above named are out and out Protes tants, while ten of the present admii,is- tration differ in religious views from the Premier as against seven who are his co -religionists. Certainty, the Pro testant Province of Ontario has no ground of complaint whatever as to the religious complexion of the Cabi- stet. Until, however, some action is ta ken by the Premier and his co•religion ists to•awaken suspicion' and call for the interference of Orangemen, or of Protestant people, a'enerally, it 1s the duty of all loyal 'citizens,to work liar- moiliously together in fnlel]ing Cana- da's future destiny by the amalgama tion of different races and creeds' in Working out the problem of British unity on ;his widely extended Demin- i0rl, are lade cos; de, ta out. ub the on ur- of. all nal reit• tied a er- vo1 of rd op be ur m ng es- is wn ke he ut he, le ON T.IL' It`7J Q ,rGT12ACK: Iv disettssing the future of Canada the uttrestful Grit journals talk about anneXation, itUpet'ial federation intim, isendence, commercial union, statu quo" •--everything in the wide world except thefp htu�rr that is most likely to occur. Indications are not wan ting of late that the British penple will soon consent to the <' proteetlon" there is in hutting I alt a ditlore;ttial duty upon etprodace of foreign countries in favor of the pre - duets of the colonies, That that ,vou,ld. make Canada very nut,h the most fay ored Country in the western world no• body can pretend to, deny. Even the roost rabid Grits admit it. •.A, little while ago they were ineliued to 'pooh, pooh the idea -as an idle dream that never could be realized, They held that the free trade idea was so firmly fixed in the British mind that, even the exceedingly mild form of protection incident GO the imposition el proforma. la1 l duties would not be, for a moment tolerated by the British voter. But re cent occurrences in Great Britain sure- ly indicate that a change has come oyer the spirit of the people. There seems to be a marked feeling of " un rest'" over there. Liberal and Tory alike are clamoring for protection ; farming man and mechanic alike want protection. The attitude: of the Can- adian Grits has been changed. No longer do they pooh pooh the idea of the Englishman'' taxing; his`" bread " for the sake of the " colonies." They sim- ply ignore the facts. The Toronto Globe suppresses the facts c'tbled to this country. And they go on talking about the possibility of annexation,im• al peri federation, independence, com mereial union, statu quo, and ee ery mortal thing but that which is most possible-thattCauade shall remain as sheds except that she shall have the advantage of preferential duties in the British market, in return for which she shall largely reduce or abolish her pres- ent duties on goods from Great Britain. But the Grits see nothing in all this that will seat them on the treasury benches, Therefore they are not in favor of it. Better the hardest of times, better annexation on the most humiltat tug terms,than the country shoutd pros- per under Tory rule,as rio country ever. prospered under any rule There is no remedy for the existing Grit 'unrest" in a prosperous country, governed by Conservatives.
