NETT Wednesday will be the last day for persons to make application to have their names put on the Dominion Voters' List. Those who have not attended to the matter had better begin to htf tie or abide by the ooneegnences. THE American authorities pi(ilfess to bo terribly exercised over the Snllivan• Iiilrain light and are doing some great skirmishing around to arrest all concern. ed and bring them to justice. Had they been half as much in earnest at or before the shameful exhi!,ition the detectives and policemen who witneesed the mill ' might have bagged the whole party. THE Post• entered on its XVIL vol. last : week and, without boosting, we state that it never rested on a more;solld basis then at the present. We hope to keep im- proving as circumstances %vagrant and ask a continuance of the generous sup- port accorded since the publication of the first issue. We are specially indebt- ed to our staff of correspondents who have kept us so well supplied with the items of interest in the various localities. THE British government are evidently preparing for emergencies. It has been officially stated in Parliament that the construction of fifty-two new war chips has been commenced daring the current year under the direction of the lords of the admiratity. Twenty of these vessels are being built in the government dock. yards, and thirty-two in private yards. Russia is evidently preparing for an ad• ranee upon Turkey, and the indications are that Great Britain may take some- thing mare than a mere passive interest in the next great European war. DOLEFUL reports come from numerous persons of the crop outlook in Manitoba and the Northwest. The continued dry weather has badly stunted the growth and grain is ripening, a great portion of I which will have to be cut with the mow- er. The gopher pest has made terrible inroads on the grain fields and thousands of acres are being destroyed by this pest, Some of the people are greatly flisoour• aged at the prospect and the indications are that the i gg;grger treflio will be apt to be reverted this coming Fall. It is unfortunate that the results are as they are, as the emigration to that reenhtry was something enormous this year. The number of people who want there since the first of the year is reported as 10,821, made up of 10,676 men, 2,817 women and 2,928 children. Over 6,000 people went in March and over 4,000 in April. Tem Montreal Witness, whioh by the way is a fearless, outspoken journal, deals with the much discussed Jesuit question as follows, in an editorial in Monday's issue "There are only two courses open to the Dominion Government in regard to the Jesuit.' Estates Act. They can refer the Act to the Supreme Court of Canada for a decision of that tribunal as to the constitutionality and legality of the legis- lation. That course has all along been open to them, and the decision of the Supreme Court would be far more valu- able than the opinion of the law officers of the Crown even if that opinion were obtainable, which is probably not the case. The Dominion Government can- not at this stage of the proceedings get the Act before the Privy Council, and neither, so far as some lawyers can see, can anyone else. What the Government can do fa to refer the Act to the Supreme Court for a decision on the legal and con- stitutional questions raised, and if that decision confirms Sir John Thompson's opinion the Government will be so far vindicated, though the final judgment on the legality of the not will remain with the Privy Council should it prove pos- sible at a later date to put the case be- fore lbs courts, and so, by appeal before the judicial oommittee, of the Privy Council, It may be that appeal lies from the Privy Connell in Canada to the Privy Council in England, but that is a proceeding with which the Government of the day has nothing to do. There is little doubt that the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council would declare the Estates Aot, in its present form, both unconstitutional and illegal, but in any event supposing it is legal, that is, within the law as it is laid down in the British North America Act, the Estabes Act is moat objeotionable from the point of view of those who want to defend that which constitutions are mado'to preserve name- ly, the civil liberty and religions equality of all individuals and sects. In the broader sense of the word constitutional the act is undeniably unconstitutional. It was long ago settled in Canada that there was to be no endowment of any church by the state, no recognition by the Government of any special religious denomination, no apportionment either of the public domain or of resources de- rived from taxation of the people for the support or benefit 101 any one religious body. This principle bas boon set aside in this bill. Even if the fund had been equitably divided between Roman Catho- lics and Protestants, the grant, as open- ing up a way for the endowment of roll • Mous bodice, would have been objeotion- able and even detestable, but even equal- ity there is none, To 6110 English the money is granted for educational pur- poses atone, but to the 'Roman Catholics it is given for the furtherance of a reli- gion in which many of the people from • whom it is taken do not believe, and Bart ' of it for the propagation of a religious society whiclt has for centuries merited and received obligtiv. • The Dominion ticcernment are, therefore, asked not only on constitutional grounds, but on the ground of nutiutaining the equality before the law of all sects, and, therefore, for the protection of the minority iu (4 us. bee, to disallow the act.. They can do 00 any time before August etlt. It ie to be hoped that the Government organs will leave off discueaing what the Government cannot cio, and what the anti•Jesuits should do, and give their ettsntion strict. to what the Government can dol' On/mu-diem News. Brantford's bad egg throwers have been heavily fined. The late Chancellor Relies' mother has just died at Siescoe. Paris will make generous provision for the Grand Trunk employeespic-nic.

Saunders, of Camden East, suieided on Thursday of last week with Paris green. A farmers' and mechanics' institute has been formed at Corbetton, Melano. thou township. Isane De -son, a prominent farmer in Guelph township and a director of the Guelph Fat Stock Club, committed sui- side early Monday morning by hanging himself in hie barn. Deceased moved to Manitoba in the Spring but returned diseabisfied, and went back to his old farm. Disappointment in his move to Manitoba and financial difficulties are supposed to have been the causes which led to his hanging himself. McLeod Stewart has soldi the anthra- cite coal mines at Banff, owned by the Canadian -American Company, to an English syndicate, of which Messrs. Rothschild are the bankers, for 91,500,- 000. The mines were originally secured by Messrs. Cameron di O'Connor, of To- ronto, for 928,750. The Cananian-Ameri- can Co. purchased from them for 927,- 000 in cash and a large amount of paid- up stock. Among the Canadian share- holders are : McLeod Stewart, Mayor Jno. Stewart, Stanford Fleming, Ed. Griffin, Jas. O'Connor and W. B. Scarff, M. P. The proceeds, after deducting ex- penses, will be divided among the share. holders. It is etated that the Stewart family hold more than one-half interest in the property. The new syndicate has stocked the company for 95,000,000, and intend to pu-sh the working with great vigor. They will establish a line of steamers between Vancouver and the southern portion of the continent for the conveyance of their coal. S.

Having been 15 years in business here, it has always been my en- deavor to pay higher prices than the market allows, and in the past years have paid city market prices. , Wool being so low in price, it will afford me pleasure to pay the highest price going. In exchanging wool for goods will allow a few cents more. Will also guarantee to Bell my goods at cash prices. I don't have two prices—cash and trade—my rule is one price only.
