THE CLINT.N NEW ERA,
The Liberal members of the House are
within their right in discussing public
questions relating to Canada, but they
get outside of it when they introduce
a Home Rule resolution like Mr Devlin
did the other day.
North Perth bye-ele. ction took place
yesterday (Thursday) but how it turned
out is not yet known. The riding is
really Conservative, being redeemed
by the Liberals at the general election
with the aid of the G. T. R. influence,
which is neutral on the present, occas.
ion, so we will not be suprised if the
riding returns to its first love, though
we would rather see it stay where it is.
deserve success, and victory, or if not
victory, honorable defeat, will be their
portion. A policy of free trade with
Britain first and reciprocity with the
United States next would prove a
path of honour and profit to the Op-
position. That policy received a limit-
ed trial in East York, It had to con-
tend against voters' lists that were
enormously in favor of the Govern-
ment. It was defended by john Knox
Leslie alone, and yet the candidate of
the Government, with everything in
his favour, could only poll 246 more
votes against Leslie than he did against
Alexander Mackenzie. Consider the
stand the untried candidate of the
British free trade made against a nom-
inee who ahnoet defeated a man who
had been a premier of Canada. Con-
trast John Knox Leslie's natTOW escape
from victory upon lists that were
many hundred votes against him, with
M. C.Cameron's defeat in West Huron.
In the general election the riding de-
clared for unrestricted reciprocity by
a majority of 379 In the by-election
West Huron went against unrestricted
reciprocity by a majority of 21. "East
York declared for W. F. Maclean
against John Knox Leslie by a major-
ity of 210. The change against tree
trade with Britain in East York,
where the Conservatives gained nearly
a thousand upon the revision, was
infinitely less than the change against
unrestricted reciprocity in West Hur-
on where the Grits gained 150 on the
revision. -Toronto Telegram.
A Protest.
The Toronto Mail, once the organ of
the Conservative party, now an in-
dependent journal, makes a powerful
protest against the consummation of
the gerrymander proposed by the
Abbott -Thompson Government. There
is too much reason for the belief of the
Mall that Canadians are not worthy of
the great inheritance of public liberty
bequeathed them by their forefathers.
As a people they. have not the sense of
fair play and as individuals they have
not the sturdy backbone of their an-
cestors. Open tyranny, naked corrup-
tion, manifest justice, does not rouse
their indignation or induce them to
rise against bad rulers as these evils
aroused their sturdy English fathers.
Otherwise the Government of the day
would not dare to resort to and defend
the grossest corruption and tyi anny
and parcel out the peoples' votes so as
to secure themselves in power. Can-
adians are not faithful to political

Kincardine District Meeting.
. .
The Kincardine District held its an-
nual meeting in the Lucknow Metho-
dist church, on May 12th and 131h.
the Rev Dr Henderson, chairman of
the District, presiding; this is the
second year Dr Henderson has had
charge of the district, who, by his af-
fable manner and cordiality, enjoys
the respect and esteem of all his broth -
ern, and excells as a presiding officer.
After the devotional exercises the first
duty of the day was the choice of a
secretary, who also represents the
District on the Statistical committee
at conference. The ballots being cast
the Rev J.S. Cook, M.A. PhB., was de-
clared elected, Rev. F. W. Crowle, B.
A., acting as assistant secretary.
George W. Johnston, a probationer of
two years, was recommended to be
continued on trial, with permission to
attend college.
On the second day the general busines
of the District was done, according to
the order presented by the descipline.
The membership was reported as 1880
an increase of 67. Missionary $980, an
increase of $31; Educational 3203, an
increase of $31. Kincardine headed the
list in missionary subscriptions, and
Ripley in educational. The grand
total raised for all purposes amounts
to 314,908, or an average of $1,645 for
each circuit and mission on the district.
The result of the elections to the Con-
ference and its several committees
were as follows: -Lay Delegates to

The Vancouver (B.C.) Telegram, of the
18th of April says: Wm. Martin, one of
the pioneer residents of Vancouver, where
he will be remembered as a popular hotel -
keeper, died on his farm in Langley on
Saturday. He was born in Colborne,county
of Huron, Ont, 1834. He learned the
trade of harness rnaker, but shortly after-
wards went into grain purchasing and corn-
miesion business in Goderich.
On the 4th of thio month, another of
StanleySishonored pioneers took her depar-
ture from this life to sojourn in the better
land. We refer to the death of Mrs Alex -
ender Sparks, of the Brownson line. She
removed to Stanley, and settled on the farm
on which Mr Sparks still residee, about 31
years ago,and where by thrift, economy and
good management, they succeeded in be.
ooming possessed of a beautiful estate of
300 sores. About two years ago Mrs Sparks
got injured by being thrown from a buggy;
and she never fully recovered from these
injuries, but gradually grew worse.

Rodgerville, writes no as follows: "Hav-
ing seen in a recent issue of The Expositor
an account of a singular freak of nature in
the shape of an egg, I thought I would tell
you that I had one which could match it.
Last summer I got an egg layed by one of
my hens which was the shape of a pea
fowl'a egg. When I broke it to my suprise
I found within it another perfectly formed
egg which had on it a hard shell. It ap-
peared as if it was the yolk of the large one.
The inside egg was the size ole brown Leg-
horn hen'a egg. Some years ago I read in
a paper about an egg simular to this one
and I think such frealta of nature are very
rare.

A CURIOUS WAGER.
--
A wager was made in 1800 in the
castle yard, York, England, between
Samuel 'Whitehead and Thomas Hodg-
son, as to which should succeed in as-
suming the most singular character.
Umpires were selected. whose duty it
was to decide upon the comparative
absurdity of the costumes in which
the two men were to appear. On the
appointed day Hodgson came before
the umpires decorated with blank
notes of various values, the coat and
vest being entirely covered with them.
Besides these he had a row of five
guinea pieces down his back, a netted
purse of gold around his head, and a
placard on his back bearing the legend
"John Bull."
Whitehead came on the scene dress-
ed like a woman on one side, one half
of his face painted and a stocking and
slipper on one foot and leg. The other
half of his face was blackened so as to
esemble a negro; on the correspond -
ng half of his body he wore a long
ailed linen coat, his leg on that side
eing encased in half a pair of leather

c‘s is. One of the hopeful signs
In the situation is the growth ot the
independent press, and the growth in
independence of some of the stronger
-party-newspapers-that are nO-Tonger
dependent upon the Governznent for
support. There are Conservative pap-
ers, notably the Hamilton Spectator,
which have demanded and are demand-
ing an imperial redistributicn by an
unbiassed comission of some sort.
The Ottawa Journal seems to have
been pretty well driven out of the
ranks of the Conservative press by
the defiant corruption and gerry-
mandering of the Government. There
are other Conservative journals which
show signs of shame over the gerry-
mander and the refusal of the Govern-
ment to grant investigations into such
charges as those that have been made
in the House by members against Mr.
Hawart, Sir Adolphe Caron and
against Judge Elliott. The Mail thinks
that the Governor General ought to
take action to preserve one party from
the tyranny of the other, or, at least
the freedom of the people from being
tampered with. The people of Canada
can never find political salvation in a
Governor-General; if they cannot save
themselves they must inevitably sink
to their proper level, which is that
which their political character or
want of character fits them for. In-
stitutions are worthless unless many?
men run them. As for the Senate,
it is, as the Mail says, little better than
an asylum for the politically infirm,
and nothing can be expected from it.

The Leaden correspondent of The Globe
gives some good advise, to Canadian barley
men. There is a good market in Britain
or Canadian two -rowed barley provided it
is of the very best quality. Last year
many of the cargoes sent from here were of
nferior grade and the trade was injured in
ts very infancy. The correspondent re-
commends shippers to see that an undeviat-
ing uniformity of quality is maintained
and that their contracts are scrupulously
carried out, whilstgrowers should use none
but the best varieties of seed and take care
that the grain is thoroughly ripe before it
is cut. 11 these conditions are fulfilled the
trade will expand. They are pretty stiff
conditions, but as tradelrestriotion has shut
us out of our true market for barley there
is nothing for it save to comply.

Cattle-The offerings again on Tuesday
were composed largely of export cattle.
The pricen of the .elosing day last week
were not, however, maintained on Tuesday
owing, no doubt, to the discouraging cable
from London regarding the British cattle
market. The heavy receipts on Tuesday
also had a tendency to weaken the market,
and cattle which sold readily for 5ie per lb
on Friday last were slow of sale on Tuesday
at $4.80 to 35 per cwt. Mr John Rogers
was the principal buyer 'on Tuesday. He
picked up altogether about 19 loads at

We have many times talked through
these columns of our
WALL PAPER Stock
and we have been more than pleased at
the grand result whith we have attain-
ed, both in our Paper department, and
WINDOW SHADES,
which have now reached so near per-
fection as regards quality, and within
the reach of all as regards price.
For some knonths past we have been
asked for
CURTAIN POLES
but have delayed stocking them until
we have been forced to. However, we
do not intend to carry a large assort-
ment as regards prices, but we have a
large stock of a Pole we will sell for 25c
The manufacturers claim that these
new Pole Ends and Trinunings are un-
equalled by any in the market, so we
are fortunate in securing for our cus-
tomers such grand value. The Poles
are in two colors, red and black. The
Brass ends are of a heavy quality, and
artistic design, while in size they are
larger than the ordinary ends.
How about buying a Bicycle?
