It will be conceded that he pos-

broad grasp of national and interna-
tional questions, his parliamentary
experience, his ready forcefulness

when in this country there has
been any written or unwritten law
that a loyal subject, because a
Catholic, and for that cause only,
should be ostracised on that ac•
count.
It is a matter of history that Lord
Monck under the uuion of Canada
East and Nest entrusted the forma-
tion of a Ministry to Sir Etienne
Tache, a Catholic, and he succeeded.
Nor was this Sir E. Tache's first ex
perience as the first Minister of the
Crown, and in all cases he acted
with fidelity unquestioned. And
upon his untimely death Sir
Narcisse Belleau was chosen Pre-
mier, not only with the consent of
the Conservatives but with the
approval of lion. George Brown for
the Reformers. Then there was
Sir George E. Cartier, a Catholic
Premier. Sir Johe Macdonald
served under these three Catholic
Premiers. And Premier Hon. John
Sandfield Macdonald was a Catho-
lie.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
An Indiana farmer compares his
condition during free trade times
with his condition now and does
not very deeply sigh for a return of
the former. IIis picture will also
apply to Canada. Away back in
the free trade era he sold his hogs
at $1.20 a hundred, flour at the
same, butter at 6e'a lb., eggs 3e, a
dozen, spring chickens for 37-'c a
dozen, good dry wood 50c a cord ;
a man and team for $1 a day etc , all
payable iu store goods which were
fully 50 per cent dearer than now.

whereto draw the liuJ between hie
duty as a party man and his desire
to be on terms of friendehip with
all. And his poi foal opponents
hava not waited unti after his death
to show their esteem for him as a

not approving his political views

P
The South Perth protest and
counter protest have been abandon
ed owing to counsel for the respective
petitioners stating in Court that
they had not sufficient evidence to
sustain their` charges, though there
was any amount of "it is said" and
street corner evidence to have dis-
qualified both Pridham and 'Prow.
'rhe final result in the protest
against Hon. J. C. Patterson, of
Wt,st Huron, will show that all the
gossip and "it is said" talk about
the corrupt practices of his egoists
or friends is nothing but the base•
lees fabric of excited imaginations,
heated to ferment by a warm con-
test. There was a rumor in Strat
ford on the day when the South
Perth protests came up inCourt that
the various protests and counter
protests throughout Ontario would
all be withdrawn. Though the
Conservative have everything to
lose and nothing to. gain by ouch a
course, is might be in the public
interest if such a course were pur•
sued. Even the gain of a seat or
two by either side would be of no
practical utility in a house where
the Cuusel`vatives have a majority
of 70. \Ve would like to see all
protests withdrad'u fur the easou
that if all go to Conrt there would
be a still larger majority for the
Conservatives, and we thiuk their
present majority quite sufficient.
All subscription and job
printing accounts due THE
NEWS -RECORD must be paid
forthwith.
And they must be paid
in Court if riot promptly
settled otherwise.
This is imperative in order
to wind up the partnership
of Whitely & Todd.
Accounts are being sent
out, and a final warning
given.
The Prohibition Commission,
which is heltling sittings in various
parts of the eountry to elicit public
opinion as to the advisability' of
enacting a Dominion pptShibitory
law, has had very contradictory -
evidence given 'Afore it. While
all deplore the prevalence of drunk-
enness in their various localities -
snore or less -the weight of evidence
appears to favor the view that a
prohibitory law would not lessen it.
The strongest reason given for this
is that such a law could not be
enforced, and the perversity of
human n ature. Moral suasion and a
good license system would seem the
best. A fairly high fee, high
standard of accommodation and a
license to every reputable man that
would comply with these conditions,
and a late for the detention of every
drunken man until sober and the
making him a compellable witness
as to where he got intoxicated so
that the license of that house could
be revoked -is by many thought to
be the best kind of prohibition ae
it would be the most practicable.
Sir Edward Arnold, who is now
travelling in Canada and who has
lived in the Orient, the Asiatic
home of the pest, in speaking of
the cholera, says the climatic con-
ditions of this country are not suit-
able for the cholera. Here is
another point ]for Grit grievance -

other day, died of hetnoi'rhage of

could bo obtained. This might be
used by the auti•prohibtioniste be-
fore tho Royal Commission as evid-
ence of the fatal results of total ab-
stinence . Its use in this way
would be as legitimate, and reason-
ing based on it would be as logical,
as much of that used by total ab

the moderate and temperate use of

A report from Ottawa stated that
hay was selling from $30 to $35
a ton In England. A Montreal,
shipper says he would,' be glad to
furnish hay in London, Eng., for
from $19 to $22 a ton. Prices he
says range from $7 to $ll in Mon-
treal, which he says is $2 per ton
more than before the McKinley
bill which was going to ruin the
Quebec bay farmers. Tho differ-
ence between the prices actually ob
tainablo in England is about eaten
by freight which comes high owing
to the article being bulky.
