Laurier is wise enough to see - this. . I He has declared frankly that if.,he must-. oboose,between the farmers and tha manu- facturers he will, unhositatingly electi'to I stand by the former, yet he recognize@ the fact that the latter have well defined rights and that it would not only be un,just but unwise to injure them, and through ,them the whole business of the country, by. too hasty action. Too much precipitancy might I create a panic, and a panic, no matter how foolish or unreasoning,.or mistaken the par- . ticipants in it Tay be, is a da�ogerous thing. We are certain that Free Trade would not injure any logitim,ate interest In Canada,but there are many who think it would, and therefore it in better to not with caution and to make ass.ulranod doubly sure than to risk the destruction of a certain benefit.by too much haste in gr . &aping it. If Mr. L%urier . and his colleagues are successful in'the com- ixig election and.find then that the country is prepared for a full measure of free trade, we may be sure that 'it will be at once � given. - - . I I - I Flying in the Face -'of History. ' Sir John Thompson, :in his Montreal ' speech, tried to make intelligent people be. . lieve that England adhered to protection for two hundred years, and only discarded it when she had become wealthy. This is ' rather too bold an assertion to be naade by ' a man as well informed as Sir John is, if he wishes to place the truth before the people. ' Mr. McCarthy, in his " History of our own . times," says : .- . . . . 11 In the year 1838 the town of Bolton -le - Moore, in Lancashire, was the victim of a commercial crisis. Thirty out of the -50 � manufacturing, 'establishrilonts which the town contained were closed ; nesrly a fourth of all ihehouiieii of business were closed and act6ally deserted, and more than 5,000 workmen were without homes or means of subsistence." . George W. Medley, in his history of ' the Free Trade movement in .England, . . says : . I 919 Town and country laboreri earning 5 to 7 shillings a week had to pay.from 10 pence to Is 6d for a four pound loaf. - The people itarved-they went mad with ' mis. ery. The.re.were riots and rick burnings. Some rioters; in the ,eastern counties. went a,bout with a flag with the words " Bread or Blood " upon it. Eight -of them were hanged, and nineteen sentenced to trans- portation or long terms of imprisonment. 'During these 30 -years ,the state of the country was. simply awful. At one time one out of every eleven of the population *as at pauper.� In 1816, at .Hinckley, Leicestershire, the poo� rate was 12 shil- lings in the pound. In 1817, at Langdon, I)Drsetshir6, 409 out of 575 inhabitants were receiving relief ; while in Ely three fourths of the population were in the same plight. Whole f amilies were reduced to live on bran. In Huddersfield, (a manufacturing town), 13,000 people were reduced to semi-atarva- tion. In 1839-42, in Stockport, one half of the factories were closed " 3,000 dwellings unoccupied, artisans Were breaking stones on the road, the poor rate was 10 ,shillings in the pound, and outside scraps of bacon ' , ,were bought in penny woiths '-,by respectable . . people to moistentheir potatobs:' At Leeds, (another great manufacturifig confer) the pauper stone heap amounted to 150 , 000 tons. In 1839, in Devonshire, the whole of the pQor man's wages . would scarcely pro- duce dry grea"d for a family of four or five children. As to meat in those times, it was scarcely ever touched. In 1840, Lord John Russell told the House of Commons that the people were in a worse condition thtin th; negroed in the West IndieF." I � . The fact is that protection in England . - . proved to be nothing more nor less thau. the robbing of the many for the benefit of the / few, as it does everywhere, and England has, nev ' so prosperoui in -all the I I . - a y � course her 6i once aa she hat, been un - I der Free Trade, nor have her people ever been so generally prosperous. This is amply proved by the fact that working. men and a,rtizans are continually flocking to her shores from the highly Protected coun. tries of the' --continent. No evidence .could be better . than this. - - - . - ' I ANNOUNCEM F.XTs have been officially - made giving the following dates for Sir John Thompson's meetings in this Province. It will be specially noticed he is to be at Clinton on . . the afternoon of Tuesday next ; I . at Stratford the same night, and &� Mitchell on Tuesday afternoon, October 3rd.

It will be noticed Sir John Will follow- Mr. Laurier very closely. - It is not stated who will ac. T. � company Sir John. At . first it was 'an-` nounced Mr. Foster, Finance Ministe*r, I I would be one of - the party, but Mr. Foster is sick. , Aside from Sir John, Mr, Foster is ' the only member of the Cabinet worth go- . i.ng very far to hear. I ; - - . - The International Yacht Race, I I . � The " Vigilamt," owned by Messrs. Moro gan and Iselin, of New York, and built by the Herreshoffs' of Bristol, Lcng Island, has beaten her -three competitors and ,been selected by the Racing Committee to repre. sent the United States in the international yacht race for the America's cup with Lord Dunraven's 11 Valkyrie," which is to take place very soon now.' The .96 ITigilant" is one of four boats, two ' ovyned, in Boston and two -in New York, buAt especially to compete for the ho - nor of defending the America's cup. She is what is termed a 44 racing machine " by . yachtsmen, that ig, everything has been tacrifioed to speed. Indeed, a competent American authority says she will not Nat more than this season, as the material of which her bull is composed is already cor- roding. The Valkyrie, designSd by the famous Scotch designer Watson, though in- tended for a racing, yacht is well and sub- stantially built and is a good cruiser in all weathers. She is, in fact, a- very staunch and beautiful little vessel and her owner, evel) if he fails to take back, the America's I � I . I . - 1. i cup, will have mf1ch pleasure and enjoyment ' .. out of her. : I � The differenoe I between these two . vessels � illustrates very Iptly a marked difference. . - in the national characteristics of the two I .. nations. .! Americans strain every nerve for a temporary ad ntage ; they have run the idea of apecialtles to ita extreme limit. � Britons are all-riounders staunch and safe. But to- got ba k to the yacht race : There is only one olowilt the ,comparative speed of the two yacht:s, and that is but a slight one. The 1-1 Na,4ahoe " built by the omme I firm as the �' Vigilant " In the same 58811011, and intended to! compete for the Brenton 4eef and Cape May cups In British waters .
