ogptiauaooe,,hae oontlorvetl and pro=

of ours. ,b
The disiutegrators or annexation-
iete are at the best only malcontent
expootatiouiets, but expectation can
never be damgnstration. With
them no one is,' but always
to be, blest, and they do"
not appear to want any one to
be prosperous and happy at the
present time. With them all blas•
sings are in futurity. Whereas
time has made the record of
the continual and present advance-
ment of our people under our ex•
ieting form of government eo plain
that a wayfaring man, though a
pessimist malcontent, cannot fail to
ewe it though hie eyes were in the
back of hia head ; and hear of it
though his ears were plug
ged with the leaden vanity of
densely complacent ignorance.
We were aeked the other day
why we do not publish solo of the
trashy literature sent out by obscure
notoriety•mongers who have obtain-
ed access to some newspapers aUSI
secured the publication of their dies
loyal effusions, having fur their ob-
ject the debauchiug of public senti-
ment in this country. There is
not, there cannot be, two sides to
the question of loyalty to Canada
and Britieb connection. It is not a
debateable mutter at ell. Annexa-
tion to the Uuited States is not a
debateable proposition. Canadians
fought for a status separate from
and independent of the United
States, They obtaiued it. The
changing of that status is no more
a practical question, feasible or
possible, than would be a discussion
in the Southern States of the se-
cession of those States from the
Union, although a Majority
of the people are in favor
favor of it. Yankees can see dis.
loyalty in that, but they cannot see
disloyalty in a more handful of
Canadians agitating for the sates•
cion ' of Canada from the British
. Empire.
No; annexation. or any theory
tending to the secess'on of Canada
from the Empire is not fit matter
for a place in THll News RECORD.
Nor the proposition that the United
States is a more desirable country
to reside in than Canada. Those
who think it is are at the liberty to
go there so far as the laws of Can
ads are concerned. But we would
as soon think of publishing\ reasons
calculated to show that hell
was a 'preferable destination to
heaven in the hereafter, as to pub-
lish the monstrous vaticinations of a
few erratic minds that a member-
ship in the great Yankee republic
is preferable to the existing un
', -etiolated- free statue of Canada' as in
independent nation forming part of
the most powerful, free, wealthy
and Christian Empire in the world.
We say emphatically to our
dearly beloved .luorist friend, we
cannot assist idiotic attempts to de-
bauch the public mind of this
country by publishing annexation
literature on the plea that there are
two sides to the question of loyalty
to Canada and 'leer integrity as an
integral nation of the British
Empire. There can no more be
two sides to this proposition than
to the affirmation that God, Truth
Righteousness and Patriotism are
preferable to Infidelity, Lying,
Immorality and Perfidy.
It is not our, mission, it should
not be the mission of any reputable
journal, to act as advertising agent
for inconspicuous and insignificant
nonenties who set up their maunder -
lugs and whims, and their puerile
vaporings of treason, against the
traditions, history and experience
of British institutions and of those
giant minds and far seeing states -
mon who, centuries back, model-
ed our system of government, and
whe all down the ages to the pres-
ent day have assisted in broadening
its base, expanding its scope, round-
ing up its angularities and adjusting
its many and complex parts to fit
the ever changing conditions of
progroaa and liberty, which its in •

•.EDITORIAL NOTES.
• A Grit exchange last week
volunteered the information that
the Hon. Edward Blake "has made
his mark." It does not say very
much for Mr. Blake that in this
country of public free aohoots he is
forced to make his mat X instead
of writing his name in full,
"Dominick EIward Blake."
Tho transportation companies and
the elevating company, Montreal,
have come to an arrangement whore -
by the tolls imposed by -the United
States Government through Sault
Ste. Marie Canal will not fall on
the vessel mon. These companies
will reduce their rates proportion-
ately, so as to meet the Ilalf•oeut
per bushel -tax.
"tI4bb,X;"t that la the Ao(lioei
edit!fr I!i<i P. Laheeehore, hat been
blabbing again, la still persists
that it watt at the Queetee .nictation
he was excluded • from the
Cabinet, iu spite of Mr. Gled-
stone's positive etetetnent to the eon
trary, He art touch as calls iVXr,
Gladstone a liar. Re repeats his
disbelief in Mr. Gladetone'e, state-
ment by saying his exclusion "was
due to the Queen and the Queen
alone." Lobby may be a very im-
portant fellow in his own oonoeit,but
it is not likely her Majesty ever
read the nasty things he wrote
about her and which he says in-
spired her with hatred for him,
But the Queen is ,not a ward
politie:an. She is every inch a
Queen, and if she has heard of his
frothy jibes about royalty it is more
than likely that she considers the
author of there beneath her con•
tempt and worthy ouly of her pity.
There is agreat hurrah in many of
our exchanges, both American and
Canadian, for better country roads.
Though Canada in this, as in nearly
everything else, is greatly ahead of
the Yankees, yet even here there is
room for improvement. A good
way would be to look for a precedent
in that good old book which
furnishes one for nearly every con-
dition of life. When Nehemiah of
old started to rebuild the walls of
the ancient city, he set every man
"to building the wall over against
bis own house." And lie made a
grand success of it. Every man
should bo compelled to have a good
road "over against" his own farm.
And some system devised to recoup
those where natural conditions im-
pose upon them unequal and onerous
labor.
Mr. Gladstone, though he gets
hit sometimes, is a great dodger.
He has successsully dodged the
Irish Home Rule bill so far, but it
may bit him yet. Ho may even
dodge a itapal bull now that he has
dodged an irate' heifer. A few
days ago while on his grounds a
heifer, of English breed yo'i may be
sure, "went for" the grand old man
with her head bowed and tail erect.
But the g. o. m. had not been chang-
ing .hie base from time to time-<:tlur=
lug the last decade without having
secured a pointer or two, so he
successfully changed his base this
time and took up a position under
a tree, against which he travelled in
a circle for some time besieged, by
the female bovine aforesaid. Final-
ly some of his servants rescued him
and shot the beast. Hie last prev-
ious personal adventure was when
an old woman hit him on the head
with a piece of gingerbread.
Some of the old country critics
are at loss to understand why a
politician of the conspicuous ability
of Hon. Edward Blake so con•
spicuouely failed to keep or get the
party he was the leader of in power.
A Canadian Grit,in a moment weak-
keas, alleges that "he was always
handicapped by the geheral pros-
perity of the country." Alack and
alas ! that this should bo thus. There
is a modicum of truth in this,howaver.
The only time his party were in
power, slums confederation, they
also handicapped themselves by hie
party, the "party of all the talents",
including the genial Cartwright,
bringing the country to the verge
of ruin. An embarrassment of
handicaps will be found, on a
diagnosia of what's the matter with
Blake's party, to be the result of tho
investigation. Handicapped by
disaster throughout the country
brought about by themselves when
in power; and handicapped by the
general prosperity of the country,
brought about by their opponents,
when they are out of power.
The latest flitn•flam. nonsense
about Canada in Yankee papers ie.
"cholera will come into the United
States by way of Canada," Just
so, pigs might fly, but it ie a very
unlikely mode of locomotion for the
unclean quadruped to adopt. But
one American paper is ,brave
enough to publish the verities of
history and a skeleton map showing
the courses of the cholera on this
continent in former years. In 1832
it came by both New York and
Quebec and spread into the interior.
In 1848 it was brought into the
country by way of New York and
New Orleans. In 1866 it again
canto by way of the latter ports
ouly. In 1873 it came by
way of New Orleans only, So that
out of four visits of the epidemic to
this continent its entrance was only
once by a Canadian port and that
in 1832. If the Yankees will
enforce necessary quarantine and
sanitary regulations at their own
ocean por•teshey need not dread 'he
plague. Canada is not iu the pest
business.

- * A row at Rostock, ref th Co.,
iawt Farley evening caused the moot
intense excitement in ►that usually
quiet little village. John Weik, a
resident of thnt neighborhood, on
hie way home from Stratford., that,
eveniug, called at Sulirenk'e Betel
and, it is alleged, asked for a drink
of liquor, which was refused him.
An altercation ensued, and the
landlord forcibly ejected him from
the building, at the sauce time strik-
ing and kicking him severely.
Weil; then went to his hone and
shortly after returned with a W in•
cheater rifle and began to fire bullets
into the hotel. After putting six•
leen shots into the huilin.g The' evi•
dentiy pane to the conclusion that
he had get even with the landlord
for ,the insult in refusing him a
drink, and retired to the woods
where' he hair- managed eo far to
*tumid arrest. Fortunately no pee
was injured.
La Patrie has poen interviewing
a French gentleman from Manitoba
who, in the course of his immoder-
ate denunciation of everything
which had any effect in abolishing
Separate schools, uttered cue sen
tante which embodies the opinion
of the Government and the people
of Manitoba.
"They can take our money," this
Ultramoutane Nor' -westerner is re-
potted to havesaid, "but they cannot
take our children. We shall sup•
port our schools, and send our
children to them."
Though the context of this man's
remarks would not lead one to think
so, he spoke, in the words quoted,
good solid sense.
Nobody ever dreamt of prohibit -
the Boman Catholics from sustain-
ing their Separate schools and hav-
ing their children instructed there•
in. If they want to assume double
expense they are quite at liberty to
do so. Chore is no law compelling
them to send their little ones to the
alleged uugodly Public schools.
Their situation is exactly the
wale as that of the rich man of
Ontario, who has to pay his local
Public school taxes; although he
sends his boy to the Upper Canada
College.
The cases are completely parallel.
The parents are not satisfied with
the Public schools, and they have
to pay for their preference. -Tele-

-The suicide by hanging on Fri
day last of Alex. Sinclair, repre.
senting Lobo township in the Mid-
dlesex county council, caused con-
siderable excitement in the cows
nlunity, as there was r.o apparent
motive for tits rash deed. Finane
cially the Reeve of Lobo was in
good condition and the world went
well with hitt, and hie family end
social relations were , of the most
harmonious character. The gener•
ally expressed opinion was that the
worry of municipal affairs had
preyed on his mind. It appears
that through some Inieconception of
the Assessment Act the assessors
through the reeve and council have
been rating men who are
under $400 as liable to pay extra
statute labor, and also charging
them with a taxable rate when they
are exempt. Some of the retepaye
ere appealed against this to the
county judge, and the decision went
against the township and assess-
ment. Not only this, but men wbo
bad incomes from property outaide
the province were taxed, which of.
course ahouid have been exempt
This misconception of the Assess -
went Act it appears has engender-
ed a bitter and resentful feeling
through the township, and no doubt
the people were not backward in
expressing their feelings on the
question in the way of honest criti'
cisco. This is the only cause that
can be assigned as the partial reason
for the melancholy and tragic end
of Reeve Sinclair. Deceased was
about 44 years old and leaves a
