The raid;. - by which we expect to pay our way. • ever, led to the South_ Afrlean War No more vital matters have ever de- which mattered , QJ ormously to 118. pended on the result of any election. That war did what Jamieson failed The more the voter informs himself to do and what the ;mining interests and casts. aside prejudices,the more were adverse, to doing. It wiped out likely he is to help in arriving at a sound and workable policy. External circumstances and the play upon them of interests remote from ours have hitherto decided our destiny without our knowledge. ''he American Civil War, South Afri an War and the World War are cases in point. Most wars are made possible by some underlying condition so import- ant that hostile interests prefer to stake everything rather than make concessions to opponents. The Southern States exported cot- ton ,and were not neinufaeturiug. The •North was largely manufactur- ing and cheap freight carriers were not yet known. Cotton was the ex- portable cash crop that paid interest on debt and put the whole Union in funds in Europe for most purposes. The South could live with free trade to Europe. It had- a choice between that and free trade within the Union. The North had no such choice. With its yast system of un- obstructed internal trade, there was no future before the North compar- able with that promised" by the Union. This promise time made good and incidentally showed that the South would have clone better not to have elected for secession. At the time, however, the South thought it could se 'ate without disadvantage and the North knew it could not let the South go. Except for this under lying - circumstance, the war could not have happened, . and the passions, politics, • literature, eloquence' and - military glory of that epoch are best understood when it is borne in mind. It was the Civil War and the way it ended that brought about Confed- eration. The end found France with an army in Mexico trying to set up an Empire under the auspices of Napoleon III., and Great Britain had one in Canada. There • were in American minds grievances • against both. The French in Mexico were a menace and a violation -of the Munroe Doctrine. Against the En'glisli were claims for ships sunk' by the Alabama and for enormous indirect damages for interference with trade. General Grant was at the head of 980,000 well equipped and victorious soldiers. Napoleon III. withdrew from Mexico and Great Britain` largely withdrew from Canada her troops and stores, retaining the naval stations. Some disposal hadto be made of Canada. She was exposed to be the _scene of battle if the Alabama claims were not settled and theindirect claims amounted to a sum impossible to pay except as tribute to con- queror. , It was believed at Washington that Great Britain would withdraw all troops and stores and arrange for a. plebiscite throughout Canada as to union with the States. Sir- Edward Thornton, the British Ambassador, was the scource of the belief. The plebiscite and the union would be a payment in full of the Albama claims. Meantime Canada was Federated and was to undertake hor own de- fence. An alternative plan was based on General Grant's humanity and com- mon sense. It involved throwing overboard the indirect claims • and payment of the -direct only. The indirect damages were ruled out of court at the Geneva Arbitration by the adroit and' friendly action of the American representative. Canada remained in a state of suspended ani- mation . politically until her future wa§ decided as it then was by the liberty of action which President Grant allowed to the representative of the United States on the Arbitra- tion Commission at Geneva in 18'72. Not contemplating any foreign wars and recognizing both ,the power and the good will of the United States, Sir John Macdonald did not at any time spend upon troops or arma- ment more than a nominal sum.- His emphatic refusal of men or money to the Soudan Campaign and Cart- wright's saying "Canada owes noth- ing to Great Britain except a good deal of christian _ forgiveness„" can best be understood in the light of what had happened. Canada's exist- ence and her being the battlefield in a quarrel not of her making both hung in the balance and were decided by the action of others. She had no decisive word as to her destiny. The Boer War arose out of a pri- vate and money making ambition. Going north from Cape Town along the high land's which stretch to the Soudan were Cape Colony, the Boer Republics and Rhodesia, the latter being a private speculation with a charter, stock and bonds and the temptations and difficulties incident to that kind of an enterprise. The Boer Republics were the seat of great mining companies _ that wished for forced native labor in the mines. The Rhodesian Company would be benefitted or at all events better advertised by being on a trunk line railway. Hence the Cape to Cairo cry and the Jamieson Raid. The mining interests and the Rhodesian Company fell out just as the raid started because the former wished to- preserve and dominate ,,the Boer Republics and thus make their own labor conditions a thing they were not likely to be able to do if the Re- publics became Colonies.

Kruger_ beaten and dead had his judgment ?vindicated by events. The Dutch majority had to be recognized as - predominant.. No forcel labor was available for the mines. The railway, after twenty years, is yet to come. From begin- ning to end of this war, Canada's part was to furnish troops,` not to consider the policy that 'led to it nor the duct of it nor the final solution. The world war is recent. In- the diplomacy that led up to it, Canada had no part. . Without full details it is known that the situation was brought about in which if Russia went to war, France had to g� in. If France went in, England had to go in, and. so had Canada., Of military and political conditions in Russia we knew nothing. Sir Edward Grey admits he did not know of the agree- ment between France and Russia, bat only what passed between France and Great Britain. Canada did not even know that, but France and Rus= sia knew both ends. The action of the Russian War Office in disobey- ing the Czar's order to stop mobiliz- ing precipitated the German declara- tion of war. The moral responsibil- ity is not here the question. The point is that fdr years it layein the power of anyone who could gain the ear of the Russian autocrat to dispose of Canada's future and the lives of thousands of her citizens. Sir John Macdonald, ' as is well known, *sired to call Canada a Kingdom, not a Dominion. It, was not a mere fancy as to names. He foresaw many risks and would have made provision against : them. As a Kingdom, Canada would have ranked with other Kingdoms. It would have conducted its own foreign affairs. Its subjects would not have been Canadians in Canada and Brit- ish subjects outside,' but Canadian subjects within or without.

COUNTY COUNCIL AT PLAY A very filie time was spent on Fri- day last at Jewitt's Grove, Bayfield, by the County Councillors of Huron County, County Officials, their fam- ilies, some ex -Wardens and . other former members. The occasion was the first annual picnic of the County 'Council, and the success of the event will Surely guarantee a picnic becom- ing a recognized event on the year's calendar of county council activities. 7t would have been' impossible to select a finer day for the event and everyone seemed to enjoy the day to the full. Ex-Wiarriens Cantelon, Govenlock and Elliott were present and entered into the day's events heartily. Un- fortunately, several members of the present council were unable to be on hand, including Reeve Curt, of Blyth, Deputy Reeve Clark, of Goderieh, both of whom were absent through illness. Reeve Moffatt, Turnberry, Reeve Beavers, of Exeter, Reeve Plum of Brussels, and Reeve Doig, of . Lowick. The first big event of the afternoon was the baseball game. County Treas- urer William Lane umpired and did the work so well that some of the big leagues will, no doubt, want his serviees soon, and the score. was a tie, 9-9, so everyone should be satis- fied. It was a very genial 'game, and the same battery. worked for both sides. Alf. Erwin in the box and Harold Weston at the receiving end. The game was between sides cap- tained by J.

France insisting on her posi- tion in Europe with a diminished population and relying partly on negro troops may not receive the sympathy she did as the victim of 1870. The seventy-five millions of- German-speaking fGerman-speaking people even if split up over several states are still the most' important commercial 'group on the continent. For centuries they held back the Slav from Europe. Now large Slav states have been created in Central Europe, whose racial affiliations are with Russia.

County Clerk Holman was the offi- cial scorer, for the ball genie and, in fact, kept the ball rolling all after- noon, calling out the various events and persuading the hesitating ones to enter. There -was one spot in the programme, however, where he found things taken out of his hands sudden- ly. It was just after the ball game when Mr. Holman was busy 'rounding up the teams for a tug-of-war. Mrs. Holman had been brought up to shake hands with some of the county coun- cillors and suddenly Mr. Holman and they may cultivate these new Slav his bride found themselves addressed States and Russia as well 1 by Reeve Laporte, of Hay Township, We can only see dimly what is 1 and at the conclusion of the -address emerging from the _Peace Treaty and Reeve Tipling, of Wingham, presented only the high spots through the fog, 1 Mr. and Mrs. Holman with a pair of but enough to see a very unstable and doubtful future. We have in the Cairo to Calabar Railway project the same alliterative jingle and the same possibilities for trouble as went with the Cape to Cairo cry. Here - are independent states on the route just as were .the Boer Republics. The only difference this time is that it is oil and not gold mines. The Poles are making the first use of their liberty in conquering coun- tries two hundred miles beyond the limits of Polish -speaking lands. As their country was a battle ground twice overrun, they must get the sinews of war from one or other of the great powers who so recently pledged us to peace. The French show their disregard for the League by enforcing their own views of the Treaty with their own troops, and of public opinion by using negro troops. They show us what future they look for by intro- ducing conscription in their negro colonies. •A turn of the wheel and we may be off again to prop up ?the watered stock of Land or Oil Companies in Persia to save the Poles from their own folly or to put down French Mili- tarism in Central Africa. A. little social recognition among prominent and pliable people, a little suppres- sion of truth and expansion of false- hood in the news, the bait of large gains spread before profiteers and a slight imperialistic bias at Ottawa would be enough. A timed outburst in a subsidized press appealing to our compassion showing us moral obliquity' in the intended enemy and lauding the fighting capacity of our young men would fire the mine. We should never forget that the appeal pretended to -have been made from Johannesburg to save the women and children there, an appeal HALF YEAR'S MARKETING OF LIVESTOCK Marketings of Canadian farm stock at the six main stockyards of the Dominion for the half year ending June 30th, as specially compiled by the ' Industrial and Development Council of Canadian Meat Packers, Toronto, show the number of head handled at all these yards in the period to have exceeded 864,000.

It is a fie_i gun captured from the Germans and bearing the date of 1917, pre- sumably the year it was made. It is, in good condition, showing only a few market of battle. The barrel is about nine feet long and takes a projectile about 31‘ inches in. diameter.

Wingham Band was in attendance and an in- teresting football match took place between Salem and- Fordwich teams, the ecore being 1-1. The net pro- ceeds, which go towards the erection of a skating rink, amounted to $200. —Ament Bros. are now drawing gravel for Me foundation of an addi- tion to their sawmill at Brussels, which will be utilized in manufactur- nig their season's flax crop.

People -of Brussels and locality will be very sorry to see the Fox family remove as they will be greatly missed especially in Melville - church, where tthey have been active woekers. It is twenty years since Mr. and Mrs. Fox moved to Brussels from Wroxeter, buying out J. T.

The wedding march was- played "by her sister, Mrs. Thom- son, After luncheon Mr. and. Mrs. Zapfe left for a trip up the Great Lakes. On their return they -will re- side in St. Catharines where Mr. Zapfe is manager of 'the East end branch of the Royal Bank of Canada. —At the annual meeting of the council of Agriculture for East Huron, held in Brussels on Friday, with President Amos Smith in the chair, the reports were presented by Secretary -Treasurer McArthur and adopted. Owing to the cancellation of several of the public meetings last winter the membership and finances are not as good as usual. eWhether the organization should be carried on or not was discussed owing to the laxity of the farming community in supporting it. It was finally decided to re-elect the staff of the past year and watch results. The Secretary was instructed to write Hon. Mr. Doherty, Minister of Agriculture for the Province, as to a visit and also County Clerk of Huron County. Dear Sir:—We, the members of the County Councir of Huron, 'desire to extend to yourself and Mrs. Holman our sincere congratulations and heartiest best wishes for a long and happy married life. In our intercourse with you we have always found you to be affable and courteous in your demeanor and active' and zealous in discharging the duties of ybur office. When your countri called you did not hesitate to offer your sons to fight and die, if need be, in the cause of truth and liberty. We would therefore ask you to accept this slight token of our esteem not for its intrinsic value, but merely as a mark of our esteem of you as a man and as an officer of the Banner County of the Province of Ontario.

About Potatoes.—Mr. John Murray showed The Expositor a few days ago a small bag of seed potatoes which he was sending to Manitoba to be planted. This seed was planted at his farm'on May 29th last and was dug out of the side' of the hills on July 5th. Mr. Murray says that as. soon as the shoot from theepotatoes planted have taken root, the original seed is of no further use and tan be taken up _and replanted to secure a second crop. Some years ago he re- ceived some seed from the late John Thompson, of McKillop, which he planted' five times and from which. he received four crops, the last being kill- ed by frost. With potatoes at e5 a bushel, this, is something well worth knowing and at any rate We would like to hear how the crop in Manitoba. turns out. Our eye specialist will' be here on July 15th and 16tb.
