NOTES AND COMMENTS
Michigan farmers appear to be about
as severely hit by the bard times as any
crass yet reported. A special census
bulletin has just been issued by the
Secretary of State, which shows that
Michigan's farms have decreased in
value $43,193,359 during the last year,
Md that the total shrinkage in farms,
implements and live stock amounted to
$61,432,987:

According to a return prepared by
the Government of Sir Oliver Alowat,
the assessed value of its land in the
Province of Ontario increased $65,000,-
000 from 1881 to 1895, while a return
presented recently to the Imperial
Parliament by Mr. Shaw Lefevre shows
that during the same period, the as-

Sir Richard Cartwright and Opposi-
tion are very anxious that the Govern-
ment should fill the vacancies in the
Senate at once, The Opposition say
the general elections will soontake place
when they. of course, will be in power.
One would suppose that if they really
theught they were soon to change places
with the Government, they would
rather have the Senate vacancies held
over so they could fill them to their
liking.

Mr. Stead, the versatile conductor cf
the Review of Reviews, wants to estab-
lish an old country baby exchange,
where those who have too many child-
ren may dispose of them to those who
have too few. This would be a much
better method than that pursued by
turning the "not wanted" children oyer
to the poor law authorities or the pro-
fessional philanthropists, to be sent to
Canada, through Government benusing,
to make it more difficult for the rising
generation to get a start in the world.
sex,
Considering that there are only
twenty thousand Catholics in Manitoba,
and that the Roman Catholic population
of the Proviace is to the whole as sev-
enteen Is to one hundred, the minority s
grievance is not extensive enough to
Justify legislation which will involve
the whole country in trouble. As a
matter ot dollars and cents, Canada
could afford to remove the grievances
of the Manitoba minority on the lines
of Horace Greeley's proposed solution
on the American Indian problem. Hor-
ace wanted to settle the question by
boarding all the Indians at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, and possibly the cheap-
est way out of the difficulty would be
for Canada to educate the children of
the minority at the De La Salle Insti-
tute and S. Michael's College.

Almost too cleyer and too cunning
was Wilfred Laurier in his treatment
of the grave question before the Domin-
ion Parliement Thursday. The
sprightly humor of an after dinner
speech, and the light touches of play -
Bid eloquence were out of place in the
debate which Hoe. G. B. Foster open-
ed with a calm, statesmanlike and can-
did explanation. The Liberal leerier
appears to think thathis only duty is to
try and snatch profit for himself out of
the embarrasaments of the Government.
There was a time when the Liberal par-
ty had leaders who would have scorned

The British Eleotioies-
The returns ahow a great falling off
in the Liberal yote. The Tories are
wild with the victories they have
already gained, and the) most exagger-
ated predictions are being made as to
the size of the Unionist majoirty in the
next House. That it will be large is
conceded on every side, but the more
cool headed of the Unionists do not
agree that an enormous majority would
be the best thing for the country. They
desire to see a well equipped and active
Opposition'that will make parliamen-
tary life interestin g. The Radicals and
many of the more outspokenLiberale de-
clare that the partyis now reaping the
fruit of its mista,kein making Rosebery
Prime Ministerin succession to Glad-
stone, and that he has led the party to
its Waterloo
The Liberal leaders are despondent
over the perfect sweep that the Conser.
vatives are making ir-. the country.
What particularly staggered them was
the defeat on Saturday of Sir William
Vernon Harcourt. in Derby, together
with his fellow representative fromithat
district, Sir Thomas Roe. It was never
thought by the Liberals that Derby
would prove false to the principles of
the party. As straws show the direc-
tion of the wind, so the asseult upon
Sir William and Lady Vernon Harcourt
and Sir Thomas Roe, after a political
meetieg in Derby Friday, showed that
the feeling of the electors, or at least a
large proportion of them, were bitterly
hostile to certain principles advocated
by the Liberals. The Local Veto bill
had as many enemies ae friends among
the rank and file of the party, and Sir
William Vernon Harcourt's strenuous
advocacy of that measut e was no doubt
responsible in a great measure for his
downfall. Certain classes of working-
men want no veto of any kind placed
upon the liquor traffic, and when Sir
William took the position he did on the
question he alienated many of his sup-
porters, how many the figures show,
for there is scarcely a doubt that this
was the most important factor in his
defeat.
The returns received thus far show
the election of 175 Conservatives, 66
Unionists, 46 Liberals, 13 anti-Parnel-
lites and 4 Parnellites. The total
number of seats gained by the Union-
ists is thirty one. Some of the districts
that have heretofore been sately. Lib-
eral have today given large Unionist
majorities and the indications are that
this will be repeated in many of the
districts where elections are yet to be
held
Another staggering blow was de
livered. to the Liberals Monday in the
defeat at Bradford of the Rt. Hon.
Shaw Lefevre, formerly President of
the Local Government Board.
Among the Unionist candidates
elected Tuesday was Mr. Henry M.
Stanley, the African explorer, who de-
feated. Mr. Trevelyan, the Liberal cen-
didate, in the North Division of Lamb-
eth. In the last general election Mr.
Stanley was a candidate. butwas rather
badly defeated.
Sir Wm. Harcourt says he has no
intention of retiring from public life.
While Sir William Harcourt fared so
badly, Hon. A. J. Balfour, the new
First Lord of the Treasury, who is to
succeed Sir William as leader of the
House of Commons. nearly doubled his
majority in Manchester.
Protection Ana The Farmer,
In his speech on the budget Sir
Richard Cartwright remarked rightly
enough that the prosperity of Canada,
which is chiefly an agricultural country
depends largely on the prices of food
products, meats and cereals, and he
added that "these will be regulated by
competitiori over which we have no
control." The view thus expressed la
in accord with the principles of the free
trade school, and is totally dissented
fromthe advocates of protection. The
competition in neutral markets, it is true
cannot be affected by any legislation of
Canada, but it is quite another matter
with respect to the home market. The
Government of the Dominion has under-
taken to regulate competition in the
home market and to promote the
prosperi ty of Canadian farmers by ex-
cluding foreign food stuff by means of
hieh duties, and it hes succeeded to a
large degree in accomplishing this
purpose. Before 1879 American wheat,
American flour, American oats, pork
and beef were largely imported for con-
sumption in this country to the dis-
placement of native produtts, whereas
in reoent years the importation of these
articles has been comparatively light,
Moreover it is a fair proposition to state
that the prices of Canadian farm stuffs
and provisions are frequently advanced
to the extent of the duty. Were it
otherwise the foreign commodities
would not be brought in. Tooke an
illusbration of the e,bility of a Govern.
rnent toregulate the price of food stuffs,
When wheat was selling in Detroit and
Buffalo at 78 cents a bushel, in
Ontario it commended 93 cents a bushel.
What causes the higher prices obtained
by tho Canadian farmer? Clearly the
duty Of 15 cents a bushel imposed by the
tariff. But for the protection thus
given Ontario fanners, wheat oakl be
imported into that province from Am-
erican grain centers at a oost not ex-
ceeding '79 cents a bushel, atid the
effect would inevitably be to lower the
Ontario article. This is not a theory,
hub a fact of which every farmer in On.
tario is aware, and the object lesson of
the advantages of the National Policy
whieh the current price of wheab affords
is more elegeent that all the rhetotic of
public men on the subject. It i net.
detried that in eertain &attestant , a
proteotive duty becomes a no effed,
when there is a lat
ne.a.weeeenee
when the price is, therefore regulated
by the foreign market. At a time like
that the operatiofl of the duty is sus-
pended but assuredly that is not
a good meson for abandoning the
protection altogether. If in only one
year out ot five the duty operates as a
proteotioa to the Canadian farmer and
elevatea the price he receives for his
produots, its existence will be sufficient-
ly vindicated.
The British farmer is a striking testi,
mony to the influence of tariffs upon
the prosperity of a people. When Mr.
Cobden carried on the agitetion her the
abolition of the corn duties, he had no
conception that the conaequences of his
policy would be the blight and absointe
ruin of British agriculture. He believed
that the English farmer would always
be protected by the cost of freight,
which he estimated at 10 abillnigs per
quarter. During the past winter the
price of wheat in the British markets
has been as low as 20 shillings a quart-
er, and the °est of freight from Amer-
ica has been below a shilling a quarter.
Free trade in Britain has, in the words
of a resolution presented in the House of
Commons last February and defeated
by only twelve votes, caused that body
to view with great apprehension the
distressed oondition of the agricultural
interest, the prolonged depression in
texti'e and other industries, and the
consequent increase in the number of
unemployed. The evidence taken by
the Royal Commission on agridulture in
England leaves no room for doubt as to
the desperate straits to which that once
flourishing interest has been reduced by
unchecked foreign competition. Since
1874 the area devoted to the caltivation
of wheat in Great Britain has been re-
duced from 3,630,300 aores to 1,927,-
962 acres, while the area of land that
has gone into permanent pasture has
increased 'from 13,178,412 acres to 16,-
465,069 acres. Sir Richard Cartwright
attributes the decline in the value of
Ontario farm lands to the protective
policy of Canada. To what will he
attribute the fall in the value of Eng-
lish farm lanes? Rents throughout
rural England have declined all the way
from 20 per cent, to 80 per cent, in re-
cent years, because of the unprofitable
oheracter of the occupation of farming,
made so by the stress of foreign com-
petition: If the Government ca.n in-
tervene in the case of British agricul-
ture and by the imposition of daties
promote the prosperity of that great
interest, the principle that the state
cannot influ'ence prices fall to the
ground.
N. Clarke Wallace at Ottawa.
Referring to Bishop Gravel's letter,
and auggesting to influence the Privy
Council, Mr. Wallace in his 12th July
speech, said: This deliberate attempt
to influence a judicial decision would be
charaeterized in ordinary cases as an
attempt to get ab the jury. and is very
properly an indictable offence. Such
methods are not only reprehensible,
but they are dangerous, as they tend to
cloud with doubt the decisions of our
highest tribunals, while at the same
time the publication of the facts by the
Bishop of Nicolet reveals the startling
truth that the ecclesiastics of this
church deem it both wise and just to
resort to practices which the common
law of Canada not only forbids but
puaisha. Mtb,coent clenelling fenssee
upon this incident," „continued the
speaker, ".et me iibate to you briefly the
attitude that I take under the present
circumstanceI on this question. The
Government, after the last decision of
the Judiciel Committee, referred the
question to Manitoba, as provided by
the constitution, ordering the author-
ities of that province to restore the
Separate school system in existence
prior to 1890. The Manitoba Govern-
ment, with the concurrence of the Leg-
islature of that province, has declined
to do so, but at the same time has in-
timated that if any real grievances exist
on ehe. part of the minority they will be
removed, although still insisting upon
the maintenance, unimpaired. of the
Public school system. The Dominion
Government, as a consequeuce, has
pledged itself before Parliament, and
the country to accept the oiler of Mani-
toba to consider a basis of settlement
before the next meeting of Parliament.

legislation at the next sessicn. of Par.

I speak under full sense of the respon-
sibility of my utterances, I have to say
frankly but firmly that I favor the
maintenance of a non-sectarian school

constitution permitted it I would
advocate with the same fervor a similar
system throughout the Dominion (Ap-
plause.) I propose, however, to await
events rather than to anticipate what
may never occur. Nor do I intend to
be lei or entrapped into precipate
action upon the subject by any drama.
no matter from what quarter it may
come. Our duty, as it seems to me, is
to adhere resolutely to the main prin-
ciples to keep them always in yiew,

yourselves, but the support of the great
majority of the people of Canada."

- —
For sixteen years Seaforth has
done nothing in the way of celebrat
bag the Battle of the Boyne, but Fri-
day she can lay claim to having one
of the grandest and largest celebra-
tions ever held in Huron. Prepara-
tions were made for a largo crowd,
ancl an exceedingly large crowd turn-
ed out, both of Orangemen and their
friends. The town presented a mag-
nificent appearance, being gaily dec-
orated with arches and bunting, and
all business places were handsome-
ly decorated. The citizens event in
with energy and assisted the commit-
tee to inekeit a success, amino effort
was spared to that end. Early
morning saw the crowds driving into
town from all quarters, and special
trains from all directions brought
immense loads. Everything passed
off successfully, the best feeding pre-
vailing on all sides, and everybody
in good humor enjoying the hospital-
ity of the citizens of the town. At
1 o'clock the procession formed at
Recreation Park, and marched
through the main streets to Cole-
man's handsome grove, where the
judging of bands and the speaking
was held. The procession was very
long, and was made up by the follow-
ing lodges: -Marshall Robt. Scar-
lett; Lady True Blues in carriages;

Then followed the speeches. The
chairman was Mr. John Neil, County
Master, South Huron, who called on
Mayor Grey, who, on behalf of the
town, welcomed the.Orangemen, and
hoped it would soon be Seaforth's
turn to have them back again.
Rev.J.Hodgins, Seaforth, corrected
the prevailing error held by many in
reference to the Orangemen. It
was their object to advance the cause
of temperance and morality, and lend
assistance to all in need, regardless
of religious denominations or -beliefs.
It was not the intention of Orange-
men to insult Roman Catholics, but
to promote pea feeling among all
citizens.

Mx. EDITOR, -So much has been
written regarding Geld Cure for drunk-
euness that we all know of the great
good accomplished. My husband who
was a wreck for years, took treatment
at an Institute over three years ago,
and has had no leek° to taste liquor
since; but it cost us over $100. I had a
brother-in-law e chemist, a slave to
drink, but too poor to take the treat-
ment. He analysed the medicine my
husband brought home and cured him-
self. Four of our acquaintances got
the prescription and cured themselves.
The following is the prescription :
Electrofied Gold, 15 ars; Muriate of
Ammonia, 'Tigris; Comp. Fluid Extract
of Chinchona, 4 oz; Fluid Extract ot
Cocoa, It oz; Nitrate of Strychinne, 1
gr; distilled water, 14 oz. Take a tea-
spoonful every two hours when awake
for two or three weeks; after the second
or third day there will be no desire for
drink. Medicine to effect a cure will
not cost over $3.50. I think every
paper should help the poor by publish-
ing this prescription.
