The Conservatives of Halifax are the latest to raise their voice in pro test against the patronage system—or rather against the manner in which it is being administered. This public out- cry, coming immediately after the declaration of Hon Geo. E. Foster that "the patronage evil is damnable” will probably lead both Mr. Foster and other members of the Cabinet to con- clude that while Mr. Foster's language may have been somewhat unparliamen- tary it was at least none too vigorous or forcible. —Kingston Standard, Con- servative. The promise of a record increase in the May Customs receipts is fulfilled in a statement compiled at the Depart- ment of Customs. The exact increase for the month reaches the substantial figure of $2,521,956.37. The receipts for the month amounted to $9,485,- 111.73, as compared with $6,953,155.41 for the corresponding month of the previous fiscal year. This brings the increase for the two months of the cur- rent fiscal year up to $5,098,776.04, the receipts being $17,561,074.03 for the two months of 1912-13, and $12,162,- 297.99 for the s&me period of 1911-12. SIR WILFRID HONORED. Laurier in power was never accorded such a spontaneous, hearty and magni- ficent welcome as Laurier in defeat was given at Montreal on Wednesday even- ing of last week. Surrounded by the members of his former Cabinet, flank- ed by the Liberal Premiers of Quebec and Nova Scotia, and the Liberal lead- er from Ontario, and faced by hundreds of enthusiastic young Liberals, he was given a reception which revealed be- yond a doubt that he still holds first place in the hearts of his fellow -coun- trymen. It was a wonderful gathering, and the reception given the Liberal chief- tain surprised even Sir Wilfrid himself. On rising to speak he was cheered again and again. For several minutes he stood there while the pent-up en- thusiasm and affection of the gather- ing spent itself. Every attempt to speak was the signal for a fresh out- burst of applause. until it seemed as if it never would cease. Sir Wilfrid was in splendid form, and made a telling and fore ful speech, in which he reviewed the issues of the late campaign, re -affirmed his confid- ence in reciprocity as a wise and bene- ficial measure, and boldly declared that he had nothing to regret for having ad- vocated closer trade relations with the United States. He denounced the hol- Iow pre-election pretences of the Con- servatives and Nationalists, ridiculed their subsequent somersault in connec- tion with their promises and predicted the early coleipse of the urbely and unnatural alliance. "The elements which bind them together make for destruction?, but cannot hold them to- gether for construction work." In the course of his address Sir Wil- frid said: --"It matters not to me what is the post assigned to me. 1 am ready to serve as Captain in the forces, or as a private in the ranks. Whatever post is assigned to me I shall in the future as in the past, g.ve to it the best of my heart and life." Slurdy Old Age rasm ren special nourishment tM of ref' assimilation.

While quotations are not higher than the best for last week, thele was if anything a still firmer general tone. Choice export cattle are quoted strong at $7.75 to $8> and butcher but a shade lower, with a few extra choice selling at the top fig- ure for export. Grass cattle are re- ported to be very backward this seas- on, and for the present no relief is look- ed for from that source. Already fears are expressed that the present short- age will be still more seriously felt be- fore there is any material change for the better. Sheep are looking like lower pros- pects, and hogs are this week 25 cents lower. Union Stock Yards—Receipts were 138 cars. with 2,318 head of cattle, 1,034 hogs, 239 sheep and lambs, and 120 calves.
