FRIDAY, r1 PL. 26, 1895.
Thou at home as much as possible.
The success of any town depends largely
on the loyalty of its citizens to home
enterprises.
Bora political partise appear to have
their .knife in the Dominion Franchise
Act. The Opposition is asking to have it
wiped out and the Provincial system
adopted as formerly.
Tan member of Parliament, whether
M. P. or M. P. P., who accepts a free
pass from the railways and still collects
his mileage, is not doing the square thing.
One or the other should be dispensed
with.
GERMANY, Russia and France are not
pleased with Japan Cbina treaty of peace.
Britain deoliues to enter into their com-
bination. There may be a conference of
powers as they appear to think Japan has
received too much.
ENGLAND is rather inclined to trim
Nicaragua's whiskers and British troops
are ready to be landed at Corioto unless
the terms dictated are complied with.
President Cleveland, of the United States,
is trying to pour oil on the troubled
waters.
ST. Muiv's Orangemen have placed
themselves on record in reference to the
question of interference by the Dominion
Government with the Manitoba school
system. It is not complimentary to the
Government either. The resolution may
be read elsewhere in this issue.
Hon. T•IR. NoGREEVY is declared elected
by Judge Andrews on a recount of ballots
in the etluebeo West election by 7 official
majority. Judge Andrews, on revising
the ballots which had been rejected by
the D. R. 0., granted Mr. McGreevy
fourteen and Mr. Bobtail one, thus turn.
ing 141r. Dobell's majnrity of seven into a
minority of the same figure. It ie to be
hoped '•Uncle Thomas" will steer a clear-
er course for the future of hie political
career.
SonE of the "appy -ups" of Ottawa have
attempted to work a boycott on the Gov-
ernor General and Lady Aberdeen by
absenting themselves from the reception
tendered at the opening of Parliament at
Ottawa last week. The way some of the
"codfish aristocracy" of this country try
to ape the nobility of the old land is.
enough to make common sense people
ashamed to acknowledge them as coun-
trymen. We hope, however, that Lord
Aberdeen will try and put up with this
"sad catastrophe" and complete hie ten-
ure of office even if the nabobs wont
acknowledge him as belonging to their
set.
AFTER a long, tedious and expensive
term the Commission appointed to report
on Prohibition has handed in the docu-
ment. As was stated before their delib-
erations show that Prohibition is not
feasible as it would injure commercial
and industrial interests ; cause groat loss
of revenue ; would interfere with the
progress of the country ; and could not
be enforced. The Scott Act is recom-
mended as the course for the Temperance
people to pursue. The Commissionere
fail to see where the licensing of the
traffic is sinful and as to Prohibition it is
too much coercion. They consider if
Prohibitive legislation were enacted
compensation should be assured to all
who have invested their means in the
bueineee. It appears to be quite evident
the statistics as to what the liquor traffic
casts this Dominion have cut no figure in
their report and we make free to predict
that after the first year of Prohibition
the question of revenue would never be
mentioned. The report may satiety the
majority of the Commiesiouere but it is
doubtful if the people of Canada will see
where they have received any value for
the large expenditure of money. When
the Scott Act was in force the cry was
give us total Prohibition, as it will be in-
finitely better, and now when Prohibition
is talked the tune is changed. The rising
generation will give us the legislation vve
desire if the men of to -day have not mor.
al backbone enough.
