We hope the Doming harvest will repay the reaper for bis toil. Want of rain is the difiloulty during the pest few months. Tull Dominion of Canada was 88 years old lasb Sunday and can no longer be pictured as the young maiden or the beardless yontb. Canada takes ber plaoe among tbe nations and presents a record that every Gannett ehonld be proud of. This is surely the growing time for the Dominion and the Mare is ns, bright. Let ns, as Cana iia continue to be patriotic, industrious, brotherly and God-fearing and if we are the next deoade will show progress snob ae we have never known and such as the most sanguine might fear to prophesy. "0 1 tbe Land of the Maple Is the land, for me, The home of the etalwarb the brave and the free, The Rose and the Thistle, the Sham. rook and lisle All bloom is one garden 'nealh The Maple Tree." the imports of the country have been more than doubled since Confederation, the exports have been trebled. That this record of unprecedented increase may be modified stoauer or later goes without ea iug—no reasonable man can expect otherwise, but let the future bring what it may, Canada can never fall back to her old condition of stagnatiop. Better methods and sounder prinatelas of Ueda have become firmly established, the old fallaoiee have been thoroughly discredit- ed, and the ultra-probeobionlet policy of T1113 OLD TORY 1lE011, 3 has now few adherents save in the ranks of those who were making themselves rich under its fostering ogre at the ex- pense of the community at large. No better evidence of the permanency of the improvement could be offered than is given in the figures which record the inorease in the acreage under culti- vation in Manitoba. In 1890 there were 1,082,000 acres under tillage fox all orops, 50 1896 the total had risen to 1,887,700, while this year there aro 2,612,134 sores, Or an inorease in ten years of 150 per cent. This is in the oldest settled of the great Western Provinces, the progress in the Territories is iu like proportion, and it means a permanent growth whioh no future depression can seriously effeet, though of course an occasional unfavor- able season may modify it temporarily. There is healthy natural advancement and not the artificial improvement which results from the forced growth of pro. teation nurtured industries. T11011snAY of last week the North Perth Liberal Nominating Convention was held at Milverton. The nominees were George Goetz. who is Reeve of Ellice township ; Hon. T. Ballantyne, Thos. Trow, G. G.

TEE:IB ULf$k14$ k'OST FROM ICAa C1 0 TO DULUTH, �_ • of Tan tiri xOthollat1ot Pear Ii my last letter to Tan l'ee'r I promieed to write 119 a few pointe eon. Darning our trip to this Weeteru country, I may say that we lett Miebawelne for Obloage 00 Tuesday morning, June 121h, at 11 a. m. We reached the Windy' oily at 2.00 p. m, Atter doing some shopping in some of the big shores, we proceeded to the boat. After procuring our tiokete and attending to our baggage, we embarked on the boat ' Peet -lees" which Tett the North Water street docks at 8 p. at, The " leeerlsss" owned by the Lake Michigan Ib Lake Superior '1'rausporte. tion Oonlpauy. is 211 feat in leegbh, 40 in breadth, and 23 in depth, was built in 1872 by the Globe Iron Worke 0o., of Cleveland, Ohio. This ;boat was overhauled, repaired aid refitted about one year ago and is now a good tom• bedside steamer. The Captain is H, 0. Page who has Bailed ever envie be was a boy and is considered ae one of the mast popular and most cautious oapbaine on the lakes, , He is a verylgood companion ; has a fatberly appeara00e end a most jovial manner and is ever ready to give any information on the various Buenos and pointe one may meet with on this trip. To tell you, Mr. Editor, that we had a delightful trip is putting It very mildly, It is simply impossible for any. one to do jneti°e in writing op smolt 0 trip ; however, I will endeavor to pen a few poiuts of interest that were n•ited by me during thie time. We had no storax of any desoaipbion during our journey, the weather being perfeot. 'foie, tits Captain remarked, is very unusual, as they generally meet with some rough sea between Cbiaag" and Duluth, a disbanoe of coals 1100 miles. Mr. Elitor, if you, or any of your subacribere, are anticipating aye - cation this Summer whioh must combine rest and relaxation with travel and in• etruotiou, where time and capital are limited, no better trip can be selected then that from Chioago to Duluth and re - Ea rn. The Lake Mi h au & Lake Su - perice Transportation Company has been engaged for 40 years in the freight and passenger business to Lake Superior, and it is their proud boast that in all that time they have never lost a passen- ger. The traveller by water possesses every advantage over the tourist who obooeee a rail route, escapes the dost and noise of trains, the aloes, cramped features of oar eureka, the uncertainties of proper hotel accommodation and the e.nooyanee of constant repacking of grip and trunk. His oomfortable little state room is his home for a week or more, the wide cabin hie parlor, the covered deck his verandah, before whioh a beautiful and ever changing panorama of sky and land and Bea is passing, alive with the roost vivid coloring in an atmosphere so clear and pure the eye is ever deceived ae to distance. The glory of a sunset on Lake Superior at the close of a brilliant day is indescribable, and the moonlight would soften the moat uosentimentai and oraety of oynioe. The boats of this line stop at all inberaetiog plane long enough to allow psssengero sufficient time to visit them, and long rune are aerially made in the night. The wheel• ing in Mackinac island and Duluth ie es- peoially floe, while the famoue copper country, with ite roads made of the crushed rook from the etamp mills, ie un- rivalled for this sport. After leaving Milwaukee (the first atop from Chicago) the tourist loses eight of land for many hours and commences to realize that mysterious dreamy charm of the water, feele all hie burdens Blipping away with the receding land, has a dim foretaste of an appetite which ie to at- tain alarming proportions as the days pave on and develops a•tendenoy to re- tire early and often for Bleep onah ae he Ina not known since obildhood. It wee a beautiful moonlight night when we left Ch' a o and while receding from the cloaks,, this city looked beautiful with its array of thoneands of lights. Arrived at Milwaukee on Wednesday morning at 4 a. m. This city is known es the beer oiby and ite' name is a good one. Ibis ae you know, Mr. Editor, famous for its lager beer which ie ex- ported to all pointe of the globs. There are quite a number of large breweries here and the people indulge freely and frequently in this beverage. It is needless for me to Bay that there are a great number of Germane in Milwaukee, but notwithstanding their beer drinking, they are on the whole, sober, thriving and industrious citizens. Apparently the Germane are not the only olaeelwho have Wien into the habit of imbibing this famous "extract of hops," as I observed others with typical countenances whioh I diagnosed es Irish. Among the many objects of interest between Milwaukee and St. Ignore, the next port of entry, are the Manitou islands, chiefly known to the outside world throngh a flourishing Mormon eobtlemoot which existed here many years ago. Beaver island le a well. known harbor of refuge for boats in the stormy weather of late Fall, many a vessel thought to be disabled, o0ming out serenely from "behind the Beavers" when the storm has palmed down, St. Iguana was founded in 1671 by Father Marquette, whose monument 000apiee a pretty little square on the principal etreet. The town was for e, long time a prominent trading poet of the Indiana and settlers of a desolate country. St. Ignaoe is interesting for its antiquity, and ie visited often beoanse the remains of that famous priest explorer Marquette lie buried bete. On Thursday, 2,45 p. in. we see to our right Maakinao tatty, to the lett Maakinao Islands. Here we gee the ferry boat, whioh le also an ice breaker, carrying care from Mackinac city to St. Ignaoe. We remained at Mackinac Island for about four bourn. This island ie sometimes called the "Fairy Isle" and is full of historical interest for every patriotic American, the battle rflelde of many ware with the Indians, Frenoh and British. Our wait here gave us a fine opportunity to view the more prominent of the many eberms of, the island. Tho day was a fine one. The island is four mileO long and three miles wide. The Kammer reddening and large hotels are amply grand. There are bhirty.flve miles of beautiful drives and 700 inhabitants in the Winter, but there are thousands daring the Bummer menthe, ae this island hi a noted Summer resart. Here we find e0me seventy-two lige ready to convey the paesengere all over the Wand. They are charged a TUE FARIS EXHIBITION. According to all accounts that are reaching us from across the water a Oen- ' ad a exhibit at the P Paris Exposition nis e one that reflects credit upon those se who are responsible for its reparation and arrangement, and what s more impor- tant, one that will be of immense value in advertising the vast resources and op• portunities of the Dominion. It is well calculated to make the Dominion butter known abroad, atbraot the attention of foreign capital to her natural wealth of mineral, and lumber, and to illustrate the fertility of her soil and her aapabilie ties for varied production. Two of the most important exhibits in this respect are those of forestry and mining. The golden wealth of British Columbia and the Klondike has given the Dominion a prominence among the gold.produoing nations of the world whioh is attraoting all the greater interest because of its re. oent origin. The nickel deposits of Sudbury too, are creating e, keen interest more--parbioularly because the other great nickel deposits of the world,—the mines of New Cale- donia,—are almost entirely in the hands of French capitalists. The exhibit of Canadian coal, too, is attraotiog much at- tention, particularly ae at the present time the price of coal is very high in Europe. Canada forestry exhibit is the largest and most varied in the entire ex- hibition and is divided into three general groups, —(1) section of the prinoipal Canadian trees, some in the form of lope and some polished on one face ; (2)—six foot lengths of the chief Canadian woods, one-third polished, one-third waxed, and one-third to their natural condition ; and (3), samples of all the wood produots of Canada, such as pails, boxes, implements, etc. Ottawa, June 30th.—The Opposition ie still in throes of anxious uncertainty, casting about for a policy upon which to appeal to the country, but with little promise of a happy issue out of all their afflictions. It is a thankless and un- promising task, this business of backing up against a Government which has es. tabltohedclean honest ndminietration, re- stored confidence to a harassed business community, facilitated the development of the natural wealth of the country, en. abled all classes of the people to avail themselves to the fall of the exoeptional era of good times which has come to us, raised the Dominion from an obscure little known and seldom considered por- tion of the Empire to THE 3101E3100T PLAon in the federation of English-speaking nations, and in a hundred other ways °hanged for the better the whole warms of Canadian history, doing more for the smoothy and its people in four years than their predecessors accomplished in five times bind period. It is a thankless task, T say,tooppose a Government withsuch a rerd, ould be discouraging under any oiraumstanoes, but is parttoularly so just now, when every desperate effort to ferret oat or concoct charges of wrong doipg have utterly failed, and even legible Mate criticism upon questions of policy which admit of difference of opinion, fall upon the uninterested ear of a satisfied and contented community. ,How eager- ly the Tories seize upon a rumor that the general eleotione may nob be held until the Spring, and how devotedly they rub praying that it may be so, for some- thing may tarn up, they hope, in the meantime,l STICH BUSY esegnV0 13000RDA.

He replied ,I lc whet' these people get down to it, 1118) will be wishing they, were back again.. 1t was 0 good joke. These are some of the prin. oipal pointe of interest that we visited on this feland. We left Mackinac at 0 p. m. for Sault Ste. Marie, wbicb we reached on Friday, at 4 30 a. m. The Sault Ste. Marie river is entered soon after leaving Mackinac island. No river in Atnerioa floats on its waters so great a tonnage, and a OOT30Ue contrast 1e observed be. tween the immense carriers laden with grain, coal or ore, typfaal of that busy, reebleea life of eines, and the pe•c.ful, quiet farms whioh line its habits. It is no unusual sight to see a raft laden with household effeote, the family and the sow, guided by the bead of the household, toward some new location, apparently indifferent to the daugere of navigation or maritime rules as to "right of way." At the head of Soo river is located Sault Ste. Marie. Here we take a good look at the Canadian shore and ere compelled to think of dear old Canada. At the "Soo" the American government bag built the iergeot looks and ship canal in the world, through, which .passes a tonnage far in excess of that whioh traverses the Suez canal or enters the ports of Liverpool or Now York. Indeed it is affirmed by governmental reports that in aggregate of tonnage the lake craft far exceeds the whole fleet on our Atlantic, Pacific and Galt mama. The State of Michigan, assisted by the Government, completed the canal in 1855. Sufficient time is given at this point to "shoot the rapide," a novel and amusing experience whioh I indulged in. A. half-breed Indian, adept in the art, skillfully and safely guided his light' canoe through the plunging and whirling waters. Wbile undergoing this novel experience, I may say that I wee Militated with a few creeping chine, which, however, Boon abated after I landed on terra firma, and no acute attack of in- flammation set in. The United States Fisberies, "Fort Brady," and the meoh• anism of the looks are very interesting to the visitor. One of the 'Soo's" attract. 110118 is the Lake Superior white fish, which are famous among epicures. The boat was supplied with this delicacy whioh was served in good style by the well trained cook on the "Peerless:' At 9.15 a. m. we were being looked through the widened river and now entered lake Superior, eeior the largestset lake on the globe, whose waters never x180 above a temper � atate of 440, and whioh are so deep and cold that it ie said that the body of the unfortunate sailor who goes to "Davy Jones looker," never rime to the enrfaoe. The water of this lake is blue and clear as crystal, the air is glorious and the brightness of its sunlight and the mel- lowness of its moonlight, melte 15 indeed "superior" to any other lake in the conu• try. Its rooky coasts beer distinct marks of that far distant past, when all this region was one enormous see. Evidenoee of a pre•historio race are to be found in many of the mines, in whioh rude im• plemente of a people long since passed away, are frequently discovered. The many eoenee along the route are both novel and interesting, and space in your paper will not permit to describe them. We pass many light houses, enormous; ore laden vessels, tiny sail boats and old time lumber barges, as we journey on. Towards evening, at 6.15 p. m., the sable banks of Grand Morale loom up in the distance. This is known as the Eunter.'s Paradise, deer and blank base being plentiful berm. We only stopped at this place about 30 minutes. Grand Marais is principally a fishing and tum. baring point. Soon niter leaving these shores, we ems some very steep land banks and oedema formations whioh are rooks, and when seen at sunset the play of color on the melte is indeeoribebly gorgeous in its blending of bleak, white, red, green, yellow and brown. The wake are perpen. Hiram Lilly, of Kineardine, dropped dead while walking in the field. William Weir, of Montreal, ex Presi- dent of the Bank Ville Marie, has assign• ed.
