The Price of Wheat.
Speaking to the Montreal
Gazette the other day a leading
Canadian miller said : "The mill-
ers of Manitoba were paying four
cents per bushel more to the Mani.
toba farmer, at Gretna for his
the. -American farmer
was receiving at Neche, whioh was
a mile south of Gretna, but in the
State of Dakota. Asked as to the
reason why this was s9, the gentle-
man declined to say, merely re-
marking that he presumed the
millers understood and took
very little stook in what the
politicians wrote in the papers for
political purposes in reference to
the price paid for wheat. 'A school:
boy.' has*„ra. .arked, "would , reaffiY
sTrfnat'ifiteldaieure mot protec-
tive tariff in force, they would buy
their wheat in the cheapest market
at present, viz., from the American
farmer," 1 The same price, he said,
was paid at all points in Manitoba
where the freight was eighteen
ants per hundred to For William,
• at Gretna.

NOTES AND
If Canada were to adopt Free
Trade the United States and all
foreign countries would rejoice.
Why? Because they would share
the trade done, at present, by
Canadians. Is it best for us -to
run our country for the benefit of
Canadians, or for the benefit of
foreigners, resIdiug in foreign

'Cannot be atone.
On reading over the Publie Sehoet 1
Board minutes we notice a very clatter
modem viz "that in accordance with
the wish expressed at the public meet-
ing held lan'y Ist last, that the ensuing
eleotion for school trustees. be held by
ballot, et" The trustees are laboriug
under as big an error la this raotion as
the Public ivleeting did whoa it decided
upon a certain line of action on thab
occasion. The wish of the public
meeting was that the election of school
trustees be held by ballot on same
date as election for municipal collima-
tors, but thab the nomination be held
on a day separate froin that appointed
for the nomination of municipal officers.
Thia cannot lawfully be done, and just
how the trustees expect to get past
the law is a query. The request of the
public meeting was illegal, as is also
the notion of the School Board at its
recent meeting, when it asks that
the above requesb be carried out.

Mr. Laurier denies that he thank-
ed God that there were no Orange-
men in the Liberal party, but it is
a curious fact that a few days
after Mr. Laurier's Chicoutimi
speech the -Cultivateur'which is
owned and edited by Mr. Tarte,
published a despateh in which the
very words are used, and this dee,

- BY the adoption of a Protective
Tariff, shortly after the Franco-
Prussian war, Germany has effect-
ed e revolution in her industrial
system. Before doing so she wes
one of Great Britain's bast custom-
ers. To -day she is rapidly supply-
ing her own wants. Twenty years
ago cotton spinning and
weaving in Germany were un-
organized and insignificant house
industries. In 1893, after supply-
ing her own requirements she ex-
ported $16,000,000 worth of coarse
cotton and nearly $30,000,000 of
mixed silk and cotton cloths.
Protection and Free Trade,
'which are convertible terms for
high duties and low duties, are, in
their last analysis, only different
forms of ProtectiOn, having ref-
erence to different parties to
be benefitted. Protection or high
duties m ean proteation for
aaour, mama preducers against the
rtaerotaraencroachments and over-
allaSteling competition of pkoduoers
in other and distant lands. Free
Trade or low duties means protect-
ion for foreign producers against
the rivalry of our native producers
in the le ter's home market. No
matter how a tariff may be framed,
the result must be protectionto our
own people or else to the people of
other countriee. If the interests
of the farmer are preferred, the
tariff will be imbued with Pro.
tective principles; if the interests
of the latter are consulted, then
the tariff will be imbued with Free
Trade priociples. This is unavoid-
able, Now, why should a govern-
ment refuse or neglect to make the
industrial welfare and adya.ntage
of its own citizens the paramount
nsidera. ion ? Why should it be -

A few days ago the Globe was
invited to correct certain of its
terrible scandal statements. It
had said with reference to the
Sault canal that that work, which
was open to travel, on Sunday last,
was estimated to cost $975,000,
but that it had really cost four
millions. The Mail and Empire
pointed out that the estimate was
not $975,000, but $3,800,000, and
gave the page in the official re-
port as authority for the figures.
The Globe was asked to put its
readers right on the subject, but
has not yet done so, leaving the
infernace that it simply invents
facts to make scandals, and then
sneaks away when it is found out.

Th.e Ottawa Fair has been a
wonderful success. The total. re-
ceipts for the week ending Friday
night were $21,550.65, cOmpared with
$13,418.44 last year. The day re-
ceipts this year were, however, not
greatly ahead of the 'previous year.
Thielyear they were $13,434.55 and
last year $213,418.44. The big surplus
of receipts is due to the gratifying
way in which the public patronized
the evening performances. The eve-
ning receipts this week were $8,126.-
05. The surplus over expenditare is
$4,300.

An Invasion of bugs, amounting
almost to a plague, took place in
Wichita Kansas, shortly after mid-
night Friday night. Electric street
lights were entirely obscured and
sidewalks and pavements were cov-
ered. to the depth of an inch. The
bugs even clogged the type -setting
machines in the news paper offices
and drove the operators from their
keyboards. There were several kinds.
Next morning the electric light men
removed over 100 gallons of brigs
from the globes of the street lamps

Mr. Greenway's assertion, like Mr.
Laurier's, that he doez not desire to make
political capital out of the situation is
not taken seriously out west. A private
telegram from Winnipeg receive3 at
Ottawa states that the voters' lists are
being prepared for the nexb Manitoba
general elections. The Provincial Min-
isters, it is said,deny rumors current in
Winnipeg that there will be a contest
this year; but the general impression is
that an appeal will be made to the people
of Manitoba on the school question
early in 1896.

The London Free Press in dis
cussing the National Policy starts
out with the admission that the
policy is a selfish one -selfish in
the sense ot the proverb which
says •'charity begins at home,"
It goes on to argue that under
this policy, designated to make
Canadians prosperous and com-
fortable, we have a people who are
well fed, comfortably clad and
warmly housed, and so Ion as the
great mass of the people are in
comfortable circumstances so lone
can the country be said to be
prosperous. But it puts it in an-
other way and asks in what coml*
try under the canopy of Heaven
are the great mass of people -
farmers mechanic's and laborers,
better tiff than they are in Canada
to -day ? We know for a positive
fact that e better condition of
things does not exist in any of
the countries of the world that we
call civilized, and we are morally
certain that the uncivilized coun-
tries are not in advance of us in
this iespect. Here, then, is a
practical test by which those who
declaim against the present state
of affairs in Canada may prove
the soundness of their argument.
Let them lay their finger upon any
country on the earth where the
people who toil with their hands
are better off than are the people
of the Dominion of Oana.da as a
whoic; They cannot do so, and

on account of the new lane which

the customs officials. These mani-
fests will cost 10 cents each, and as
the ferryboats make three trips an
hour between Sarnia and Port Huron,
it will cost 90 cents an hour for each
boat. This, the management says,
is one-third of the entire receipts,
and would render it unprofitable to
continue.
