NOTES AND COMMENTS,
---
A. Liberal newspaper makes the
following comment in connection with
the recent bye -elections in Quebec :-
"That the Quebec constituencies have
all gone against the Government can
didates is evidence that the French
Province is more in sympathy with Mr.
Laurier than with the Government
with Mr. Bowel' at its head. And it is
also evidence that they expect as much
from Mr. Laurier in the Manitoba
school matter, as from Mr. Bowel!,
The Bye Election.
The eleetions in. four constituencies
on Wednesday lasb were of more than
ordinary political importance. The
people of three provinises were to pro.
nounce upon the adruinititretion of pub-
lic affairs by the Dominion Governmeet,
more particularly upon. the panes -ma
issue known aa the Manitoba school
question, and so actively was the
campaign waged in at leest three of the
constitueneies so ample has been the
discussion of the polities of the two
penes, that the results will not unfair-
ly be interpreted as reflecting the gen-
eral trend of popular opinion. The
greatest importance was attached to
the fighb waged by Dalton McCarthy,
aseisted by Attorney -General Sifton Of
Manitoba against Hon. Dr. Montague,
the new 'Secretary of State. Every
effort possible was used by McCarthy
to defeat his strongest foe in parlia-
ment, and the answer was such a one
as ought to make McCarthy's sore and
swelled head, dizzy, for the pride of
Haldemand was re-elected by a msjority
of 594, an increase of over 500. In
Quebec West the Government retained
a supporter whether Mr. Dobell or
Mr McGreevy was returned, and the
former was elected by 7. if the latter
had been returned considerable
difficulty would haye been caused on
account of his having been expelled
from the present parliament. In Ver-
cheras, Que., the Reformers retained
the seat they have held continuously
since Confederation, although their
candidate supported the Government
in granting remedial legislation to Man-
itoba: The Government lost the seat
held by Sir. John Thompson in Antag-
onish, N. S., to Mr. MoIsaacs, Reform-
er, who :was elected by la. Mr.
McIsaacs was elected to the Legislature
last summer by over 400, while Sir
John was the only Conservative that
was ever elected in the constituency.
Queensland, one of the Australian
colonies, is trying to float a loan of $12,-
000,000 in three and a half per cent.
bonds at 87e. Canada, a few months
ago, disposed of three per cent. deben-
tures at a trifle below par. In other
words, we get oyer ten per cent, more
for our bonds than the Queenslanders
expect to get for theirs, and we will pay
half per cent. less in interest than our
Australian cousins. The difference in
the figures is an indication of the
splendid credit -which the Dominion
-
enjoys in the London money market
It is announced in the speech from
the throne that a bill relating to a land
eubsid.y for the Canadian Pacific is to
be submitted at the present session of
Parliament. If this is an intimation
that a company, which has already re-
ceived about $100,000,000 from the
Canadian taxpayers, is to be given still
further aid there will be an emphatic
and well-founded protest from the pub-
lic. The C.P.R. has done Canada good
service, but the corporation has been
ivell paid for it, and the account between
the two ought to be closed right now.
Mr. Mulock has already gieen not-
ice of two bills -one to reduce the
salaries end: allowances of the Govern-
or-General to $25,000 a year and the
other to prohibit the acceptance of
railway passes by members of Parlia-
ment. An expenditure of $114,000,
which is the average amount spent an-
nually on the office of Governor-General,
is out of proportion to the resources
of the country. The sum named by
the member for NDrth York is ample
for all legitimate purposes; and, if the
curtailment proposed is made, not only
will public money be saved for more
useful purposes, but there will be less
of these absurd vice -regal functions
which set a pace of social extravagance
at the capital which civil servants and
members of the House cannot keep up
with and be honest.

Hon. Mr. Foster has been asked by
Sir Mackenzie Bowen to lead in. the
House of Commons, and has accepted
the responsible post. Public opinion
has for some time pointed to Mr. Fos-
ter as the probable leader of the popular
Chamber. If there has beeu any doubt
regarding the matter, it has not been
so much as to whether the offer would
be made to Mr. Fostee, but whether
the state of his health would permit
him to accept it. The heavy strain of
last session, which provect too much for
Sir John Thompson, compelled the
Finance Mmister to seek a period o
rest, from which it was feared he would
emerge with a disinclinationto shoulder
a great responsibility. But Mr. Foster
has recuperated wonderfully, and. will
be yet able to give the country import-
ant services. flis experience as a par-
liamentarian, and his tact in the man-
agement sf the House eminently fib him
for the position as leader, to which he
has now been called by Sir Mackenzie

The Rev. Alfred Andrews, Methc-
dist minister, writes to the Winnipeg
Tribune, expressing radical difference
from his brother clergymen on the
school question. When the acts of
1890 were passed by the Manitoba
Legislature Mr. Andrews says he "felt
alarmed at the moral effect which our
school act -would have in Quebec If
here in the Province of Manitoba
where the Catholics have had separate
schools for about 17 years, just because
-we were in the majority, mir govern-
ment, withoub any mandate from the
electorate, swept them away with sur-
prising haste in legislation, how would
the Protestant minority in Quebec be
likely to fare at the hands of their
Catholic fellow citizens ?" Again,
"How deeply the minority feel the
wrong is plain from the fact that for
the past four years they have been
still supporting their own schools,
while being at the same nine called up-
on to pay taxea to support schools,
which very few of their people patron-
ize," Rev. Mr. Andrews declares that
he will not be a party to the coercion
of Catholics.

The Hort. G. W. Roes is credited with
the statement that while it costs $8.54
a year to educate a child, it takes $187
to keep a convict in the Central Prison.
Now, if it costs the Proviece $187 each
to keep the innsatea of the Centel
Prison, how much does it cost the free

the Prison competes with their labor

SUICIDE. -The residents of this quiet
village were thrown into a fever of
excitement on Monday morning of
this week, when it was learned that
Mr. W. W. Ball had taken his own life
by hanging. Mr. Ball arose about 5
o'clock, a little earlier thau usual. and
proceeded to the stable, ostensibly for
the purpose of feeding his horse ad
cow and doing other chores. Nothing
yras suspected until about 6.30 when
his little daughter went to call him to
breakfast. She found the stable door
locked from the match; and although
she called and knocked at the door no
reply was received. Mrs. Ball and
her youngest son went to the stable,
and they Alto found the door locked.
They then passed around the stable to
the rear and effected an entrance
through a bole. After searching in
every corner, they finally found Mr.
Ball in the hay loft hanging by a rope,
around his neck, and attached to the
rafters in the roof, with his feet about
one and a half feet from the floor of
the loft, He was cold in death and
died with but little struggle, his featur
es remaining quite composed. Be
atill wore his clothing, even his cap
kept its usual position on the head.
The body was discovered about 6.30,
and it was :showed to hang suspended
• until the assent ot the Coroner, Dr.
Elyndman, of Exeter, was secured for
its removal, no inquest being neces-
sary, when Mr. Chas. Fritz cut the re-
mains down and had them conveyed
tenderly to the house. fhe suicide
was one of' the most determined ever
known, and the apparent calmness
with which he arranged Ins gallows
would suggestsome considerable. pre-
meditation. Be fastened 'a clothes-
line securely around the rafter, to
which he attached a window sash cord,
having cut off the correct length from
a roll which lay at his feet sn the hay
as he hupg suspended in the air.
Making a noose, be placed it around
his neck and from the ratter stays
midway between the roof and floor he
jumped from life into eternity. Mr.
Ball was an Englishman, about 57 years
of age, and was respected by all who
knew him, and no valid reason can be
assigned for the deed. On Sunday'
he had not spoken to any person, and
it is thought that he then planned the
scheme. No blame can be attached
to anyone as being the cause of the
rash act, neither could it be altogether
financial pressures, for be seemed to
enjoy a large patronage, and had all
preparations made for building a hand•
some furniture ware -room this summer
In fact the cause is shroudieet in mys•
tery at present. Mr. Ball was a
carpenter by &stele. and had conducted
rn coonection therewith a cabinet -mak.

the & past twenty three year's, mov-

During the past few weeks very en-
couraging information has been receiv-
ed regarding immigration in the North-
West, and the following from the
Edmonton Bullebin is well worth quot-
ing ;-"Immigreeion has commenced in
earnest, every train is gettme larger,
and the question is asked : can they be
coming into other parte of the Territor-
ies as they are flockine into Northern
Alberta During the'ss month 870
settlers haye arrived and settled north
of Calgary, and this is the month when
nothing more than locating the land
and perhaps getting out a few logs or
fence rails can possibly be done. The
bulk of these settlers have come from
the Western States, our nearest neigh-
bors, and. are people who know exactly
what the country is like before coming,
having either sent delegates to inspect
the country's resources, or have heard
from their friends who have been here
before them. These settlers are net
coming empty handed. Thirty-four
carloads of stock and effects were
brought in by them, There were 85
settlers on the lasttrain leaving Calgary,
over half of whom came through to
Edmonton ; 12 of these came from
Ontario, 4 from England, and 69 from
different parts of the United States.

BRIEFS. -Maggie A. E., daughter
of the late Andrew Beek, of Saltford,
passed away early on Friday morning at
the residence of her uncle, in the pres-
ence of all her relatives, Miss Maggie
was a well known personage in this
vicinity, her illness of many years dur-
ation, borne with exemplary patience,
and a thorough kindness of heart, hav-
ing made her a host of friends outside
her own family circle. That her decease
was not a surprise, was because of the
well-known fact that King death hed
been expected for many days, and
when the call did come there was one
willing and prepared to obey. The ice
has almost dissolved in this portion of
Lake Huron.
