the Picton Times also reads Mr. Came*
ron a lesson. As he is well able to take
care of himself, we will aot undertake
his defence, but desire to refer to one
point in the discussion. "Shncoe" and
the Times talk as if the acceptance of
knighthood was not contrary to Liber-
al principles, and was perfectly justifi.
able. We take issue on this point, and
believe that a great many members of•
the party are with us. The Liberals al-
ways opposed the acceptance of such
honors. Mr. Mowat was regarded, and
justly so up to a certain point, as one
whom the Liberals could admire and
uphold, because there was nothing in
his record that could be successfully
challenged. But when he accepted
knighthood he stultified his admirers.
Their mouths were closed on this point.
Mealy regarded it as a direct slap in the
face, because they expected naturally
enough that Mr Mowat was in harmony
with the well-known principles of• the
party. In the opinion of his friends in
this part of the province his action is
regarded as a big mistake. We dolaot
know one who approves of it, while
we have heard many condemn it in un-
measured terms.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1892
THE AMERICAN ELECTIONS.
A more decisive victory than that
obtained by the Democratic party, in
the States, last' week, has never been
recorded. It was a clean sweep. As
some of the American papers them-
selves not- ft was a landslide, a
cyclone and blizzard all rolled into
one". It was a straight contest be-
tween tariff reform on one side and
protection on the other. Alluding
to it the New York Herald says:-
- ---"Thenarapaign-was-fenglit-on-pro--
tection. There was no issue on candi-
' -slates, except as they stood for or
aidinet protection. There was no is-
sue on 'parties except as they repre-
sented tariff for unlimited protection
or tariff for public revenue. There
was no choice between the candidates
as personalities or between the parties
as political organizations. The par-
amount issue was protection."
The issue was clearly defined and
the answer of the American people
very emphatic. The masses evidently
• 'made Up their mind that they would
no longer endure taxation for the
special benefit of manufacturers.
Some papers on this side of the line
are trying to make out that the elec-
tion has no special interest or signifi-
cance for Canadians, but they know
a..
' 'better. If the American tariff is low -

On Thanksgiving day a Toronto

the Canadian tariff must be lowered
likewise, and It is not a particle of use
ignoring this circumstance. Canada
will also be benefited by the possible
abolition of the McKinleytariff, which
has assuredly been against the in-
terests of the Canadian farmer.
Cleveland is regarded as more favor-
able to Canada generally than Harri-
son has been, and this in itself is a
pleasing omen to Canada.
Their one great error.
At a Methodist Class -leader's conven-
tion in Toronto, on Monday, one of the
speakers said: -
"He had given the matter of church
finances some thought, and he consider-
ed that one of the most important
problems now before the church for
solution was, how was she to free her-
, eiself from debt. There would never be
that spiritual revival which the church
was looking forward to and hoping for
until the mortgages the churches were
now carrying were wiped away."
These words apply more particularly
to Toronto, but they have a general
application as well. It is the opinion
of many good and intelligent people
that one of the gravest errors the Me-
thodist Church generally has commit-
ted, has been the building of unneces-
sarily expensive churehes, and running
them "under mortgage." Fine edifices

Concerning the new incumbent of
St. Paul's church, the Meaford Mirror
(where Mr Fairlie has been stationed)
has this to say: -The congregation of
Christ Church, as well as the public
in general, will regret to hear of the
reverend gentleman's removal from
our midst. As a faithful expounder of
the Gospel he has been eminently suc-
cessful in adding very materially to the
inemberehip ef Christ Church, and
placing it on a sound financial basis,
while as a private citizen he has won
the respect and esteem of all classes.
A Tomo SOCIAL. -A unique, delight-
ful and interesting occasion was the
"Topic Social," or "Welcome," held
under the auspices of the E.L. of C.E.
of Rattenbiiry street church, on Mon-
day evening. The object was to have
a social gathering that would bring•
the young people of the church more
into touch, and at the same time be
new and sufficiently novel to excite
interest. The room was tastefully de-
corated with lace curtains and por-
tiers, giving it a cozy and home like ap-
pearance. There was a large gathering
of young people, all of whom seemed
to enter heartily and cordially into the
spirit of the occasion, and to thorough-
ly enjoy theraselves. Topic cards were
distributed among all, containing a
list of 12 subjects and a blank line op-
posite each topic. Engagements were
then made by all who wished,with any
one present, for the discussion of any
topic, and at the proper time several
minutes were allowed for the informal
discussion of each topic, and the scheme
worked splendidly: Mr Wilbur Man-
ning acted as chairman. In addition
to the topics, an excellent program
was rendered, which embraced solos
by Misses Hattie Rumball, Sadie Sibley
and Allie Taylor; Duet by Misses Lily
and Orpha Miller; quartette by Misses
A. Rumba% A. Taylor, I. Boles and
Mrs Chown; instrumental quartette by
Messrs Ernmerton, Taylor, Kerr and
May. Refreshments were seryed at

Daniel Stewart, Obief a the Sons of
Scotland, in Brussels, handed over a cheque
for $1,000 to Kra D. McKenzie, of Seaforth,
insurance on the fife of her late husband
who was killed a short time ago. He held
a beneficiary eertifioate in the above men-
tioned order.
At last death has come to the relief of
Miss Laura Gordon, of Goderfohathe young
woman whose name was eo closely associat-
ed with the story of the orphan ohild Ellen
Loomas, and her struggle of over a year
with a wasting and trying disease terminat-
ed on Sunday evening last at 9 30 o'olook.
Several townships have decided by
resolution to take a vote on the House
of Refuge at the next municipal elec-
tion, and all in the county should do
likewise. Some people are under the
impression that the vote commits the
county to the erection of a House of
Refuge. This is a mistake. The vote
commits to nothing. It is simply an
expression of opinion. Last week's
Seaforth Expositor contains an excel-
lent statistical article showing the
relative cost of Houses of Refuge in
other counties, and but for its length
we would transfer it to our columns
this week.
There was not quite as large an at-
tendance as usual, at the union thanks-
giving service, last Thursday, doubtless
owing to the unpleasant weather. The
•serasices-were excellent throughout,the
sermon by Rev J.Walker Shilton being -
appropriate and appreciated. The col-
lection, on behalf of the poor, amount-
ed to a little over $20.
The death of Rev Mr Needham, of
Egmondville Presbyterian church, re-
moves one of the most promising min-
isters from Huron Presbytery. A
young man who had already attained
distinction, he was admired and be-
loved, and his untimely death makes a
vacancy that will not be easily filled in
the affections of his people.
Word was received on Monday of
the death, in Michigan, of the Rev Jos.
Williamson, formerly pastor of the
Baptist church, Wingham. The de-
ceased was a member of Maitland
Lodge, No, 119, I.O.O.F., and also a
member of the Canadian Order of For-
esters, and at one time occupied the
position of High Chaplain of the latter
institution.
The Sabbath School anniversary of
Willis Presbyterian church will be held

intendent of Rattenbury street Sabbath
School, Mr Geo. Baird, of Stanley, and
others.
On Friday evening, the 2nd inst.'the
regular meeting of the quarterly board
of Ontario street Methodist church
was held, The attendance was not as
large as usual, owing to the severe
storm on that night. The report was
very satisfactory, the finances being
well lip. The envelope system is prov-
ing a great success. The stewards for
Turner's church for the year were
elected, viz.: Messrs Crich, Holland
and Elcoat. The stewards for Clinton
were left to be elected at an adjourned
meeting to be held soon. The people
are looking for glorious spiritual re-
sults during the year.
THANICSOIVING SOCIAL. -The thanks-
giving social in the Ontario street
Methodist church, on Thursday even -
last, was a very pleasant and enjoyable
affair. From 7 to 8.30 o'clock refresh-
ments were served in the lecture room.
The ladies had so arranged the tables
as to make it conducive to the social
feature of the entertainment. About
eighteen small tables, capable of seat-
ing four persons at each,were arranged
around the room, and every effort
made to make all feel at home. At
8.30 the company repaired to the body
of the church, where an excellent pro-
gram was given, consisting of three
choruses by the choir of the church;
two quartettes by Misses M. Andrews
and Miller and Messrs Holloway and
Downs; Miss Milly Andrews sang with
good taste a,nd effect a beautiful solo;
Mr Spaldhig sang in his best style a
solo that was very much appreciated;
a duet by Misses M. Andrews and 0.
Miller, was exceedingly well rendered;
Miss M. Smyth gave a recitation very
nicely; Mr Barrington contributed a
recitation which was well received;
Miss Mountcastle, as usual, delighted
every one with her reading; Mr Hous-
ton, 111.A., gave m reading in his best
style: Mrs Smyth also gave a reading,
which was well received. In every re-
spect the social was a !success. The
amount realized was about $21.
