from the word go.1 and because we believe
it -to be a queat[on of the utmost importance
', to Canada, we propose from time t° time,
devoting considerable space to the discussion
of any points that arise connected herewith.
It is quite natural that some are opposed to
the proposition, yet when one reflects for a
Jew winutes, it does seem surprising that
anyone should oppose it. During the last
• fiscal year for which figures have, been pub-
lished, June 1886, Ontario exported in round
numbers nearly twenty-five million dollars
worth of produce. Where did all this go tot?
About twenty millions of it went to the
United States. Why did it go there, if Eng-
Jand is willing to take all our exports, as
some of the opponents of Commercial Union
allege? For the simple reason that it was
the nearest and best market the Canadian
producers have, being in many instances a
much better market than England,offers.
sc
No man in his ales will allege .that a
limited market is better than an unlimited
one. The United States presents a market
of sixty. million people, which in a few years
will be increased to one hundred million,and

would think this a decided interference with,

IT sett leaked out t some of the London,
Conservatives recently demanded of Sir John
Mr Carling's removal from the minist y,and
also his retirement from public life„biat the
Premier refused to take action until after
the contested elections are settled. It lass
been a surprise to many why a man like Mr
Carling, who has no special ability, and
takes but an indifferent part [n public affairs,
should be retained where he is. But per -

John if he is thrown overboard.

Wx have for years advocated the use of the
lash on a certain class of criminals, and the
recent whipping of a man at the Central
Prison for an attempted outrage on it little
girl, has revived the questidn. There is but
one argument that has the slightest effect on
a man who will assault the weaker sex, and
that is physicist pain. If every forcible
crime against women were punished with
the lash, there would be fewer of these ghast-
ly crimes to record.
A aE&DER calls attention to the fact that
a recent editorial paragraph in these columns
on commercial union conveys the idea that
there is a duty on eggs. going to the United
States. He is a strong opponent of commer.
cial tmion,,,.but says the reason of so many
eggs going to the States is because there is
no duty. Admitting the error and accepting
bis statement, what does it prove -simply
wkat we claim, that if there s no ous-
tome duty between the two counts e, every
article of Canadian farm produce which now
finds a market in the States, would realize
to the producer a better price in the same
market.

Mr R W Phipps considers that unrestricted
reciprocity, would give an immense impetus
to iron production in Ontario, because it is
cheaper to take the coal for smelting to the
ore than copvey the ore to the coal, as is at
present the manner of disposing of Canadian
ore.

by the people of Guderich, that tia

occasion of the anniversary of the Battle r
of the Boyne in that town. In February t

number of brass bands were present from
different places, and played selections in
front of their respective headquarters. -
The Doherty Organ Co's band,of C.inton,
received the encomiums of the day. The
Indian Orange Band, of Munceytown,also
attracted a good deal of attention.
The population of the United States at the
present time is estimated at 61,700,000. It
is with this large population that unrestricted
reciprocity vyf1ll establish unlimited trade
relations. Who will say that this would not
add enormously to the general prosperity of
the 4,500,000 who reside in this country?-

farmer needs it for his farm produce, espe-
cially for his barley; the lumbermenfor to

Smith, protectionist.
There is something of grandeur in the
scheme. Free trade from the Gulf

frozen north -l- thready Ontario is stirred .
with the idea. But we have more to gain,
for it means business for our ships and for
our coasters, as well as better prices for our
fat•mers, better wages for 'our artisans, and
increased value for every foot of real estate. -

So far the opponents of commercial union
t have scored but few points against its advo-
oates. The annexation and British connec-
tion cries were too easily answered out of the ,i
mouths of the defenders of the National T
Policy to be used very effectively, and have B
been practically abandoned. The last cry of w
the protectionists is that commercial union fo
