NO SURRENDER.
President FIerrison h'ts issued a
proclamatiou declaring that after
Septr. 1st 1892 all freight in
Canadian vessels going through
the Americen s`Soo" canal shall
pay a toll of 20 cents a. ton.
Now is the time for the Canadian
Government to take a firm stand
and intke no further concessions,
It is tt que:,Iiun whether it MIS not
bad policy to have intimated the
possibility of ,boli' hi ng the rebate
on all fro;ght passing through the
Welland canal that afterward passed
down the St. Ltwrouce to the sea
board. This rebate be it under-
stood is allowed to American as
well as to Canadian vessels. There
is no discrimination against Ameri-
can vessels, If the Canadian poli
tion is right, and the best inn•
inertial authorities says it is, the
closing of the "Soo" canal gates or
a toll of 20 cents a ton on Canadian
vessels should not prevail over the
assertion of our rights. The Cana-
dian Government might increase
the .tolls on all freight passing
through the Welland only and in•
crease the rebate allowed on what
passes down the St. Lalvrence, and
by this or some other means recoup
Canadian carriers for the 20 cents
extortion by the Americans. It will
never do to knuckle down to Uucle
Sam. Like all people of barbarian
inatincts the more you give the
more they want. Ono of their
leading lights orated 'the other day
that they would not be sat:sfied
with getting all Canada ; that their
next cry would be "onto the north
polo." If they had it just now
they would 'cap it with "gland•
fathers hat" as an electioneering
dodge. To make concessions to the
Yankees is like throwing pearls be-
fore swine. They do not know a
good,thing when thoy got it. They
have ,many good things in the
prvileges granted Them in the carry-
ing trade through Canada both by
land and water. We hold the
shortest and most economical route
to the seaboard from the great
\tlrost. The Americans want to
get to the seaboard with their farm
products. Lest year they shipped
abroad 222,915,266 bushels of
wheat alone, a large proportion of
which passed through Canada.
We are willing they should use our
commercial highways on equitable
terms, on terms similar to Canadians,
But, to use a Jacksonian emphasistn,
by the eternal tho supremacy of
Canada in this Dominion must and
shall be preserved. The English.
man's house is his castio ; the
Canadian's heritage is equally Lis
territory. Multiplication of word
courtesies with the Yankees only
makes them more greedy. As in
ninny other cases the first loss is the
greater saving. Admitting that
Canadian shippers will suffer for
a time by the Yankee imposition of
toile it their "Soo" canal, it will
only he for a few months. Better
hair this for slow! (' ne, than to
be srteez_d nIl time by our
uncenaeionablo shark neighbors,
We would any to our ruiol'e, "quit
ye like men," and front Sarnia to
Vancouver the mightily patriotic
refrain, well "done good and faith.
fun eervante," shall resound from
hill and valley, from forest and
plain and penetrate, the very vault
)f heaven and meet with the ap-
proval.of Onuipotence itself. Let
our rulete stand by their guns.
Let them iusiet on the rights of
Canadian freemen. God is upon
the Bide of right and biggest bat-
talions. Britain has both, and
Canada is as much Britain as any
other portion of the earth's surface
peopled by the 350,000,000 of loyal
British subjects. No surrender of
our rights should be the order of
the day ; no surrender at the dicta-
tion of a foreign power of our un-
doubted right to regulate the tariff
on our public works, built with our
own money and for the benefit of
our own people, without prejudice
against foreigners.
MILITIA—MILITARISM.
No rogue who e'er felt the halter
draw had good opinion of the law.
Even would-be viola:ors of the law
havo no good opiuiou of it, or of
the means of enforcing reepect for
it. There is a .handful of neon in
Canada who have no good opinion
of the militia. Doubtless these
haters of our volunteer soldiers have
a hell defined presentiment that
they may, in carrying out the loci•
cat formulation of their peculiar
ideas of liberty, equality and fra
ternity, come iuto coutact with the
defenders of the peace of the com•
rnonwealth and the Queen. These
haters and belittlers of the Cana•
dian militia are mostly annexation•
Lite, and have a wholesome dread
that if they kick'od up any monkey
b,lsillees of the Itiel kind they
would likely meet with the same
fate. And the annexationists in
Canada who are continually shriek-
ing fur the abolition of the militia
are as inconsistent in thoir action in
this matter as they aro Ill the matter
of free trade or auythiug else. They
are restless under our prOteCtivg
system with its tariff averaging
25o/o and would have free trade by
annexing Canada to the United
States with its tariff of GOo/o. They
are dissatisfied with the Canadian
system of militia and would have
Canada annexed to the United
States where they allege such a sys-
tem does not'jievail: But the fact
is the militia or volunteer soldier
system exists in a more intensified
form in the States and is as capable
of striking terror into the hearts of
evil doors, rioters, rebels or traitors
as is the Canadian system. Cana-
dian aunexatiouists cannot safely
hug the delusion that they could
"talk traitorism or act rebellion un
der the stars and strides with any
ruore impunity than uuder the
union jack. Of course it goes
without saying that there is wore
need for militia in the States than
in Canada, for the disaffected in
Canada is microscopically small—
just large enough to show that
Sir Walter Scott's interrogation,
"Breathes there a man with soul so
dead," etc., might bo answered in
the affirmative in Canada by that
indefinately small number called a
corporal's guard—while in the
States these undoairable sort of peo-
ple,
eo-
plcare quite numerous. That
Canadian aunexationiats would not
get out of reach of militia militarism
by annexation is quite evident by
existing conditions in the United
States. Just across the lines in
New York State, in Buffalo and
other places, 12,000 militiamen are
under arms to preserve tho peace
and protect property. A large
number aro under arms in the
Quaker Pennsylvania state for a
similar purpose. In Tennessee
state, the militia is also called out
for active service t''suppress law-
lessness, while a similar Brat° of
things pievail in the wild and wool-
ly western state of Idaho. A rebel
is' a rebel wherever he may be.
And those who are acting the part
of incipient rebels against the bene-
ficent laws of this Dominion and
its Constitutions would be rebels
even did they have the annexation
wish of their hearts gratified. They
would find no rest in the United
States for the disintegrating forces
their hearts ache for. They have a
militia thorn as well as in Canada.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
Tho Hon, Edward Blake, having
exhausted himself in his successful
efforts in placing Mr. Gladstone
in powor in Britain sailed last Thurs-
day for Canada, to recuperate and
brace himself up prior to his return
to England in January when he
Lord Salisbury lase formally ten,
bred the resignation of himself
and colleagues, and Mr. Gladstone
has received the royal commands to
form a Miuiatry and has named hie
colleagues whom he wi111put through
a course of sprouts between this
and next January when Parliament

bed swept from the face of the earth
the fenian hoodlums from Toronto
who paraded the streets of "Iiamil-
tou shouting "To hell with the
Queen!" "To hell with the union
jxok 1" a grand service would have
been done to civilization end North
America.
The spread of the use of the
bicycle is said to be an evidence of
the advance of civilization. It is
also an evidence of the advance of
the upper portion of the human
body. Those who bicycle much
acquire a habit when walking of
humping their shoulders and stick-,
ing their heads forward very much
in advance of the perpendicular of
their bodies.
Before, the Royal Prohibition
Comwission the other day, the Rev.
Mr. Montgomery in answer to a
question said, "I do not believe the
Divine law forbids the moderate use.;
of wine." In answer to another
question he replied, "I believe that
a law that would decrecse drunken-
ness would be in accord with the
Divine law." But there are some
sacrilegious people wha would im-
prove the Divine law by prohibit•
ing the moderate use of wine while
they neglect what it sanctions, the
ouforcerneut of laws to decrease
diuukeuuess. It isa curious anomaly
to find many well tueauing people
willing to support au amendment to
Divine wisdom.
Such an etniuontly respectable
paper as the 13uslou Traveller, in
airing its ignorance of Canada, says,
`The real trouble with Canada is
that she is ender the domination of
a foreign government." Canada,
however, is not under the domina-
tion of any foreign government,
though the Yankees do try to dom-
inate us by maliciously mean legis
lation. Canada is part of the Brit-
ish Empire. If the Traveller means
that the distance that separates Can-
ada from England makes us foreign-
ers to each other it is mightily mis•
taken. There is as much affinity of
feeling between Canada and Eng-
land as there is between Oregon
and Maine, And the state of Ore
gon is far more dominated by tits
powers at Washington 3000 miles
away than Canada is by the author-
ities at London. Thele is no com-
parison. Yet it would scarcely be
correct to say the state of Oregon is
dominated by a foreign power.

World's Fair will he held in Zurich

ber 12 and 13. Every effort is be-
ing put forth to make the fair a
success.
