There are enough unmarriedladies and gentlemen in Elora to make every clergy- man in the place rich—if they would pair off and get hitched.

The editor of Grip in comment ing on tbo cartootl we present this week enys :— Tun Toronto News of last Tues• ' The Canadian case in the fishery day stays :—The official statement I difficulty is perfectly clear.

It sh,lwe that the treaty, we revert to the agreement rata of outlay is increasing at a rate which will certainly result in another heavy deficit at the close of the financial year. The expendi- ture for January exceeds that of the corresponding mouth last year by $287,900, while the sxcoas of ex- penditure over revenue for the whole seven months is $788,272. Exceptional oiroumstanees, espoci. ally the Northwest rieiog and the settlement of the queetious growing out of it, were largely to blame for previous deficits. But Inc the pres- ort shortage no such excuse eau be offered. It is purely the result of the extravagance of the Ministry, who, instead of cndaavoriug to economize by dieoontiuntug super• fluous offices, and cutting down heavy salaries and useless outlays, act as though the resources of Can- ada were inexhaustible. There is no likelihood of any permanent re- form, so long ae the Administration is dependent for its oxtstence on the vote of the legislators. It is the need of keeping together it majority by plunder, which virtually eompels governments to this continually in• creasing extravagance. 'LITE FISHERY 'SQUABBLE.

On this we have taken our stand, and 1t is for infractions of this that we have seized Awori can boats. Our neighbor is doing a vast amount of tail talk and brow- beating, but thus far without avail. We aro determined to hang on to our fish in reepuuse to the Poet Laureate's cry of "Bretons, hold your owl,'' and notwithstanding the opposite advice of the London press. Wo don't thinlc our American cousins are au), way particularly anxious after all for war and we be- lieve as Canadians wo prefer peace to anything else. A war with the United States would be it most un- natural one as thousands of instan- ces relatives would meet in opposite ranks and slay their own kindred.
